Port San Luis Pier Pelican, I

This brown pelican was sitting at the end of the Port San Luis Pier. As I crouched down some distance away to take its photo, it flew over to within arms reach of me, obviously hoping for a handout and perhaps thinking my pair of sunglasses was a fish. Disappointed, it soon flew away.
