brown pelicans feeding frenzy

Location: Earth » North America » Costa Rica » Puntarenas

Date: None specified.

Just off the coast of Costa Rica near Puntarenas, we saw this mass of brown pelicans in a feeding frenzy. Don't know what the fish were, but they must have been a favorite to elicit that kind of response!
