White Pelicans - Wes Gibson Photography

American White Pelicans

For the past 15 years, I have been captivated by the American White Pelican, a majestic bird that never ceases to inspire me. Photographing them has become a true passion, allowing me to witness their graceful flight, synchronized fishing, and seasonal transformations up close. During nesting season, they develop striking bright yellow and orange markings, along with a unique nuptial tubercle on their bill. Capturing these moments through my camera lens fuels my admiration for these incredible birds and their fascinating life cycle.
