Pelican Spotting

Apart from frogs, Kirrily also loves Pelican's. We have been pretty lucky lately as the baby pelicans have come from, whereever a baby pelican comes from, to Pumistone Passage. In particular, the jetty near the ferry. We went walking last week to try out Kirrily's new shoes which we bought from Rivers and headed off to find some pelican's. We found some. 27 of them actually. Some in the water gobbling fish, some drying their feathers and other's just waiting for the easy way to catch dinner when the fishermen come in and wash their fish.

Kirrily got rather close then the pelican made a typical pelican noise (bit hard to discribe in words other than - AAAAAAAAAARKKKK) so she scampered back to me yelling "hand, hand, hand" as she wasn't sure of that noise. Of course, i had my camera and couldn't resist taking photo's. i wasn't quick enough to get Kirrily standing near them.



We then headed back towards the car but had to stop and just watch the world go by. Kirrily demolished a muslie bar and then i got this photo, which i thought was rather cute.



We've also finished her new bed. We had put the railings on her bed to stop her falling out and started taking her toys across to her new room. We will have a trial sleep tomorrow afternoon. I know she loves her cot. i'm just hoping she loves her new bed just as much. I'll keep you posted how that goes.
