Another Sighting of White Pelicans in The Villages, FL

 

White Pelicans stop here in The Villages, Florida during their Winter migration.  I really love seeing the big gatherings of the huge beautiful birds!  I saw this flock fishing as a group in a pond on Pinellas Drive here at the Evans Prairie wetlands area, on Saturday, April 9, 2016.  There also were Double Crested Cormorants, Great Egrets, a Great Blue Heron, and a couple of Little Blue Herons plus ducks and coots around!  What a mob!

I don’t think this is the same flock I had seen a couple of weeks ago in the North end of the community on El Camino Real.  I am always so pleased when I see the White Pelicans, which by the way, are mostly fresh water-loving birds.  Please click on the thumbnail image to see the slightly larger version of the picture.  Enjoy!
