This Brown Pelican buzzed our boat on our way out to Bird Key Stono.

With a long steady swoop he caught up to us.

The local birds have learned that boats can mean scraps from fisherman/shrimpers.

He gave us the look then dropped into the water. Too bad for him that as bird watchers we had nothing for him.
