This pelican had a restful day on Sunday because the fisherman do not ply their trade on Domingo. Normally the birds are flapping around with lots of energy when the local and commercial fisherman return with their catches in the morning. I guess birds need to have a day of rest, too.

You talkin' to me???
beautiful, Kate. The bird AND the photograph. We'd see pelicans on the foreshore in Cairns - just loved watching them. I'm envying you this trip to Mexico. You show it to us so well and make it all so mouthwatering.
More exotic than my commonplace seagulls!
It looks very pretty.
Too spoiled this pelican? Not going fishing by itself? Just a nice life on a nice beach!
A classic pelican photo. I always admire these birds whose beaks hold more than their belly can.
Thanks for the visit.
When I saw a Pelican in the flesh I couldn't get over how big they are!
Wouldn't mind swapping places with the pelicans at the moment. looks very nice.
This is a great capture. It really is an interesting bird. Such a long beak makes him a great catcher! I am sure “he” (un pélican in French) will be soon back to work, flying in the air.
Oh I remember when I lived in Coast Rica (oh, 30 years ago !)the pelicans on the Pacific coast in Punta Arenas, they were grey too.
In Australia, they are black and white!
The pelican may have thought of Domingo as a day of hunger.
Beautiful shot, Kate! How are the Spanish classes going?
Gorgeous! I'm fascinated by Pelicans.
Yep, I think we all need a day of rest...great shot of this guy. I like the way he is looking at you.
Awww, he's so sweet. You must love living in paradise! :)
Great light to take a picture - I love the way it lights the water, the wet rocks & the pelicans!
Great photo Kate. Amazing creature.
Kate, Gorgeous shot of that sweet fellow! I love pelicans. I don't begrudge him his nice life on his nice beach. . .:-)
