I remember standing on the pier at St. Pete FL one day and there was a
flock of pelicans...maybe about 30 of them, just hanfig out. Being a
bird type of person, I walked over to have a chat (those who know me
will tell you that I do indeed talk to birds)..thisfisherman started
yelling at me that they were dangerous and that I would get hurt.
pfffttt..they sidled up to me and made their squaky noises...they
weren't averse to me petting them, either...I didn't have anything to
feed them and probably wouildn't have because it was a fishing area and
getting fisher people angry is not a good thing...when I walked away,
they followed for a bit and then decided since I wasn't good for food
they'd go back and harass the guy that thought they were dangerous...- Hide quoted text -

Try again.....

We love the pelicans. They are smart birds and beautiful to watch in
the air, especially when they are cruising the water just inches
above.
