Texas 13 - Galveston


More Brown Pelican? Love this species. Synonymous with the Gulf Coast. Great comeback from near extinction in the 70's due to pesticides that made the eggshells brittle...more here.

I popped out early from the Motel to the mouth of Galveston Bay just to enjoy the typical species of the area...

Peaceful breakfast with Laughing Gulls?


It was springtime!

Black Skimmer
The above is an amazing bird...more to come of this one.

..and the beautiful Royal Tern...


It was a great spot for easy access and close views...

Just one more...

Slightly out of focus in the early morning light...but I love it!
