Among them are Dalmatian Pelicans , so big and lazy. We are approaching a large mudbar with some more Dalmatian Pelicans… and a flock of geese… dark, round-headed and short-billed, elongated white blaze on their faces – threatened and declining Lesser White-fronted Geese ! Should I add, a lifer, too.
