American White Pelicans

 


American White Pelicans

Hey there. Thanks for stopping by and looking at my pics. I took this picture of these gorgeous pelicans swimming on the Mississippi River in Wisconsin, right at the Iowa/Wisconsin border at O'Leary's Fishing Spot. 

This is a beautiful spot where people fish, and kids play and the pelicans all swim together with Cormorants. I like to just take a small picnic for myself to just reflect on things, or sometimes bring the grandkids to just sit and watch the beauty of nature in this spot. 

If you like this picture, please visit my pelican photos collection in my Zazzle gift shop.

About Me

  Hi All! This blog is just a fun way for me to show off the things I accomplish in my life, the things I find beautiful and it gives me something to do. I have a chronic illness, and I spend most of my time in bed. Each time I go out and "do" something, it is an accomplishment   I love nature, animals, scenic views and people watching.

Louie, My Amazon Parrot

Louie, My Amazon Parrot  Louie has been in our family for about forty years now. We don't know how old he is. My mom got him from her friend and we know he lived in a bar for a long time. Thus his love of swearing and saying inappropriate things. But he is the sweetest boy. When my mom had him I was a little scared to get too close. I'd feed him a peanut here and there and talk to him but that was about it. He loves to yell, "help", which has resulted in neighbors calling the police at least once for my mom. When my mom passed, I inherited Louie. It was a learning curve trying to figure out what I needed for Louie. One thing I learned, was Louie was nice! Mostly. I say mostly because kids can make him nervous. We learned quickly he doesn't like too much action and screaming going on around him. But when it's just him, me, my other two dogs and cat, he is just fine. He will open his mouth to warn the dogs and cat not to get too close, but in general they will a...
