Sheila,

Good to see you are photographing some of our feathered friends as well as people etc. Good use of lighting and composition.

Cheers

Can't put my finger on why this pic doesn't do anything for me...?

I think it may be that fact that the eye of the pelican is normallly the thing that jumps out at you, it may be because it is in B/W?
Did you PP this into a B/W?

It was converted from colour to mono using a very high contrast action.

Yep that's it.

For some reason these birds scare the living day lights out of me.

Its all in the eyes. Looking @ your colour one gave me the creeps right away.

I know I am SAD :( it's a bird!
