Shadows amid the waves bird-eye targets, besties gather for a fine dining experience; aqua splits to pierce of bill. Fueling up the old pouch, a winging pelican riding sea breeze to sustenance; all hook-billed and needing no bait. Just a hop, skip-skim across to side-dish; let’s have a herring and mullet casserole! Throat-sack wiggles, jiggles, down the hatch, then it’s back to the nest for cocktails and a snooze. Gregarious, the lot of us, quite a personable group; flashey-fish’in, eight-foot wingspan, spots another appetizer; bank left, wings fold in a dive-bomb spin...dessert! We’re aerial acrobats of the coasts; hop a ship and we’ll perform for you; no charge.

A well written poem, M.L. I like the exquisite description of the pelican's dining experience. The picture was a great match for your poem. Have a great week! Bill
