Swede’s Photographs<p>Sitting in the Morning Sun</p><p>In the water off the beach at Gulfport, Mississippi, there are several timber piles, reaching up out of the water a hundred meters or so offshore. Birds use them to rest on, particularly the birds who dive for their food. This silhouetted bird appears to be a brown pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis).</p><p>My photo gallery contains more that 900 images that I've chosen to share. Most are there for their visual appeal but there are a few novelty images.

Bill Gallagher Photography<p>Brown Pelican</p><p>I found this pelican down along the ocean in La Jolla in Southern California. The bird was nesting on the edge of a cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. He/she wasn't very far from where I was at but didn't seem to be worried about my presence.

Zeiros Lion<p>Hanging out in Zinthing's art stream and we started talking about gryphons made from the official bird and mammal of our respective political subdivisions. I realized that my state's gryphon would be a mix between the American black bear and the brown pelican, two diametrically opposite critters in terms of temperament. And now I'm horrified at the combination now that I sketched it out.</p><p><a href="https://lgbt.io/tags/Sketch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sketch</span></a> <a href="https://lgbt.io/tags/Fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fantasy</span></a> <a href="https://lgbt.io/tags/Monster" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Monster</span></a> <a href="https://lgbt.io/tags/Gryphon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gryphon</span></a> <a href="https://lgbt.io/tags/Griffin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Griffin</span></a> <a href="https://lgbt.io/tags/BlackBear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlackBear</span></a> <a href="https://lgbt.io/tags/AmericanBlackBear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AmericanBlackBear</span></a> <a href="https://lgbt.io/tags/Pelican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pelican</span></a> <a href="https://lgbt.io/tags/BrownPelican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BrownPelican</span></a></p>
Swede’s Photographs<p>Dusk’s Aviator</p><p>"The Pelican, a master of flight, navigates the fading light with elegance." - Copilot</p><p>"The serene photograph captures a tiny silhouette of a Brown Pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis) against the vast expanse of the sky. The bird’s delicate form, possibly a Brown Pelican, glides solo amidst layers of clouds painted in a gradient of colors—from deep blue to lighter hues—indicating either an early morning or late evening time. The tranquil scene evokes feelings of solitude and peace, while the artistic composition emphasizes the bird’s graceful flight. The watermark in the bottom right corner credits the photo to “Swede’s Photographs,” adding a touch of authenticity to this captivating moment in nature" - Copilot with editing. </p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photo</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photographer</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographylovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photographylovers</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wildlife</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdsofmastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birdsofmastodon</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdwatching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birdwatching</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/BrownPelican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BrownPelican</span></a></p>

Swede’s Photographs<p>A Return to the Skies</p><p>This is a brown pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis) shortly after in plunged into the ocean. Now the bird is flying again, it will rise again to an altitude where it can continue hunting. I chose this photo because it shows the short pelican's tail.</p><p>"The Brown Pelican is a comically elegant bird with an oversized bill, sinuous neck, and big, dark body. Squadrons glide above the surf along southern and western coasts, rising and falling in a graceful echo of the waves. They feed by plunge-diving from high up, using the force of impact to stun small fish before scooping them up. They are fairly common today—an excellent example of a species’ recovery from pesticide pollution that once placed them at the brink of extinction." - allaboutbirds.org</p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photo</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photographer</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographylovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photographylovers</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdsofmastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birdsofmastodon</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdwatching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birdwatching</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/BrownPelican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BrownPelican</span></a></p>
