Pelican taking off near Merritt Island

Pelican Merritt Island Florida

I was rollerblading along the bridge/overpass/park connecting Florida to Merritt Island (they’ve kinda got a park/fishing pier along the bottom edge of part of the bridge) and saw this Pelican. I caught him a few times, but I think this was one of the better shots. I’ve got a nice one of him(?) standing still, but it’s boring compared to this one.

That’s at 1/400th of a second, but we can still see the motion at the tips of his wings.
