Incoming Pelican! Shru captured this Great White Pelican at Ana Sagar Lake in Ajmer, Rajasthan.
It’s a simple shot to capture. The incoming pelican has its wings out and is gliding in a wide turning circle in a clear sky to land nearby.
The bird’s wing span can range from 2.5 to 3 metres. These birds are so majestic! As the pelican circles, the individual feathers on both the leading and trailing edges of the wings are clearly visible. You also get the feeling that the beady eye is searching for the landing spot!
