A pair of American White Pelicans cooperatively fishing together at the wetlands this afternoon - cruising along the surface with wings cocked upward, craning their necks akimbo and peering underwater for prey. Here one poses with beak raised, wobbling the thin-skinned, sun-backlit pouch to process a successful catch - at the base of the pouch, just visible in silhouette, is the shadow of a small fish that has been nearly flipped down to the gullet! #Birding #Pelican #Oregon
