2016 Wildlife Photo Contest

Pelican, Oyster Farm, San Ignacio, Mexico, Mexico
Like Father Like Son

Species: Pelican | Location: Oyster Farm, San Ignacio, Mexico, Mexico

Picture taken March, 2016, San Ignacio Lagoon, Baja, Mexico. When I first looked at this picture, I thought the baby pelican was resting in the wings of the father (or mother). Upon closer inspection, I could see that they were both standing, but I love how you can see just one eye of the baby and the adult.
