Florida Vacation Photos: Part FOUR

This is the 4th in a series of vacation photos to Florida.

If you haven't seen the first three blogposts, drop down after this one and enjoy!

After we arrived in Florida, the weather cooled down from the 70's to the 60's and we got plenty of rain and fog.

But one of the nicest days came and we drove to St. John's Pass for the day.

We have been there before and it never disappoints for pictures of Pelicans, docks and little shops to browse in.
But for me, its always about the birds.


I LOVE Pelicans and all the tropical birds in Florida.


I loved this little tugboat, too:


Geez, too bad I couldn't enter my own photo contest, because dang, it has RUST on it.


Most of St. John's Pass is developed around the theme of Pirates.


They have pirate cruises, pirate restaurants, pirate shops....and of course, pirate boats!:


And gorgeous pelicans.


Everywhere!:


And perched on every free pole:




This looked like a baby Pelican who still has to grow into its beak, but I am not sure:
But did you SEE his cute little bird face?????


Some men were cleaning fish on the dock and throwing the remains into the water for the Pelicans. It was a feeding frenzy!:







Evidently, the bird network called out about the buffet, because they kept flying in to fight over the feast:



It was such fun watching them fight over the fish and splash about:




They have this HUGE wingspan. This guy was drying out his wings and just hanging out:

Awww.


The life of a Pelican!:
Although I don't think I would want to eat fish remains
all the time.....


How about YOU?????
