Help!

A pelican that apparently dive bombed somebody's fishing gear. It happens quite frequently around here. Due to the high salt content in the water the hooks usually rust out and fall off in a month or so. This guy seemed to get along okay, after this shot he was back to dive bombing fish again.

    Great capture indeed with important message for everyone. Technical solution, focus and colors are also excellent.

    Living with the pain.
    Auch!
    One month with a fishing hook waiting for it to rust and fall off - great perspective. Auch, auch! ...

    Poor creature even if it heals in a certain while.
    Very good point of view and great details in it's coat.
