Brown Pelicans in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

The pelicans were really cracking me up in Cabo as they were "chasing" down the fishing boats. There were a bunch that were eating fish that were being tossed to them so I was able to get pretty close, they weren't really afraid of ppl since they assume they mean food :D

DuckWatcher, great pics!
We saw the same thing yesterday when we went out fishing, 'Costa Rican style'.
The Brown pelicans followed us from start to finish along with many Maginificant Frigatebirds and other large seabirds.
Only problem was, as I was trying to take photos someone was always moving in front of me! But I got some nice photos.
I have just finished cleaning & freezing 33 sea bass which was 'our share' of the bounty but the pelicans and their friends got lots!
