      How can you have NOT seen this bird here before? I see them all the time! They’re pelicans and they are NOT an endangered speices anywhere in the world.

      By the way, this photo seems fake, I’m sorry. :-|

    Nice pic. I will tell you something though. Experience has taught me that when pelicans, gulls and other seabirds sit on your boat like that, you got loads of bird crap to clean up. Lol. Good luck to the owner.

          Because your deduction re the bird crap was spot on. Who else could have come up with such a brilliant conclusion?
