I love Pelicans! They're so much fun to watch. I took this
picture near Ft. Morgan in Gulf Shores, AL on our vacation.
I especially love the Pelican on the right :0) Makes me laugh
everytime I look at the picture.

Beach Flowers

While we were exploring in Gulf Shores, I found thes pretty little
flowers growing in the sand.

Osprey

Fish Eagle

I love bird watching and have since I was 10 years old. I got real
excited when we found this bird sanctuary in Gulf State Park.
The following pictures were taken in and around the santuary.


Marshland around the birding trail.




The sanctuary is home to the Osprey which is a fish eating bird
of prey, or raptor. This is a nest of baby Ospreys on a manmade
platform. The Osprey is also called a "fish eagle."
