Nice moment captured. The upward wing stroke looks nice. Due to the crop there is some loss of details. The composition is fine. Thanks for sharing.

Nice image .I like the way the other pelican is protesting and Ibis is trying to get out of the way.

The pelican on the right is ready to take evasive action if the pelican is going to land on top of it. Nice watching the behaviour of these fellows. This was taken from a moving boat. That also impacts sharpness even though the shutter speed was 1/1600. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
