Very nice behaviour record. Shows the peculiar way a pelican catches its prey. If you have made more detailed observations, you could post about this in the Natural History section.

Nice action captured. A very peculiar pose. Seems the light was a bit harsh. Thanks for sharing.

Nice one. Slightly more contrast will be even better. This is a single bird trying to catch fish. They also engage in group fishing by flapping their wings simultaneously and pushing out the fishes infront of them. I saw this behaviour again in Banni grasslands in GRK a few days back. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
