Baby pelicans

DSCF7020

As we approached the rookery I could hear an alien-like screeching which I quickly realized was baby pelicans being fed by their mother. The rookery was filled with newly hatched pelicans in little nests.
The baby pelicans blended perfectly with the silvery bark of the mangrove trees.
