Nancy Merrill’s ‘Photo a Week Challenge’, this week calls for a ‘Perfect Sky‘. These two brown pelicans obviously think this Florida sky is just perfect for a bit of flying practice.
I’m also linking this post to this week’s ‘Skywatch Friday‘.
Happy weekend to you all. 🙂

Free wheeling…I would like to be doing that just about now! Great photo Sylvia 🙂 xx
Not so simple to try c
to try cactching them in your lense
and a perfect shot of them!
Thanks, Cybele. 🙂
Great capture of them flying!
Thanks, Aletta. 🙂
I’d never seen pelicans in flight , before…
….nor did I know that they flew so high!
Great photo, my dear!
Thanks so much. Glad you enjoyed my photo. 🙂
This is a great photo, Sylvia. I’ve been trying to catch birds in flight with very little success. Well done 😀
Thanks, Dianne, It’s not easy. I miss more times than I hit. 🙂
It does look good for flying practice. Hope no bird bumped into the other. Great capture 👍
Thanks, Mabel. I’m sure they’re very careful not to bump one another. 🙂
Indeed, this picture of the pelican reminds me of Florida sky. Very nice.
Thanks, YC. 🙂
Great capture!
Thanks so much, Kathy. 🙂

Lovely sky shot.

You know, I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a pelican fly! Love this!
Thanks, Torrie. Glad you enjoyed. 🙂
Reblogged this on Eu Vivo a Melhor Idade and commented:
NO BRASIL , NÃO HÁ PELICANOS MAS OUTRAS AVES TÃO MAJESTOSAS QUANTO ELES
Thanks for the reblog, Sonia. 🙂
Perfect sky and great shot of the birds!
Thanks so much. 🙂
I love the pelicans, awesome sky shot! Have a happy weekend!
Thanks for your lovely comment, Eileen. 🙂
Oh how amazing I’d love to see pelicans in flight!
Thanks, Gilly. Me too. 🙂
lovely capture of pelicans under beautiful Florida skies, Sylvia. 🙂 right now we have gorgeous blue skies here in Chicago but the weatherman advised us to bring umbrellas because this afternoon rain is on our way. 😦
Thanks, Lola. Did the promised rains arrive?
This put a smile on my face. =) Feels so good to see birds flying.
That’s great. Glad I made you smile. 🙂
It looks perfect to me! But then I might be little biased 🙂 Great shot, Sylvia.
Thanks, Tiny. 😆
Love this shot! Brown pelicans take me back to California every time I see one.
Thanks, Jude. Yes I also remember seeing them down at the beach in California.
I enjoy watching pelicans… they just should not be as graceful as they are!
Thanks, Roslyn. Yes, I agree with you. 🙂
Lovely photo! I think I’d like to be there. 🙂
Thanks, Elaine. Come over for coffee. 🙂
I’ll just check the flights … 🙂
I wonder if I’d make a good pelican in my next life, Ad? It looks such fun!
Happy weekend to you too 🙂
I’m sure you’d make a great success of whatever you decide to be in your next life, Jo. 🙂
Bless you, hon. That’s kind 🙂
Wow- what a fabulous capture! They are just beautiful- especially against the sky
Thanks so much, Lisa.
Off to lunch they go eh! 😄
Absolutely! Watch out little fishies. 😀
Nemo is running away again lol!
I adore watching pelicans Sylvia. Such funny looking fellows in some ways but when they fly and swoop down for their catch so graceful and powerful.
Thanks, Sue. Yes, they are such unwieldy looking birds on land, but watching them in flight, as you say, so graceful. 🙂
Looks perfect to me! Nice shot, Sylvia!
Thanks, Jill. 🙂
