Family Thanksgiving in Slidell, Louisiana Part 4


One day Mike, Marguerite and I went to a local spot to see what we would find. These next few are Brown Pelicans.


When they spot a fish they go all in.


They don't actually disappear completely, usually.


I thought the silhouette was kind of cool. By the way, I wasn't even close on getting the spelling correct on silhouette. Had to look it up.


Again, a completely committed to getting that fish.


Marguerite found some pretty flowers to pick.


Mike took this picture of this Snowy Egret and Little Blue Heron as we drove down the road.


Latter in the day we drove into New Orleans and visited the Audubon Aquarium and Insectarium.


They had some birds there, also.


This is the infamous Lionfish, It is an invasive species in the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and along the southeast coast of the U.S. The are voracious eaters and are harming coral reefs.


They had all sorts of insects in the insectarium but the butterflies were the prettiest and easiest to photograph.
