About In the center of Hong Kong Island, is an Aviary. It was less impressive than the mini guide books claimed, but on my way out, I looked down, and saw a gigantic asian pelican floating below the walkway that I was on. Floating perfectly in the not so deep water that almost looked like oil from the dark rocks. Note the reflections... they are the massive sky rises that tower around the tiny aviary.

Exhausted from taking pictures of sky scrapers on my lunch break... I relax with a few bird pics in the 90 degree, 90 percent humidity. The water looked so good, I was ready to dive in with the birds.

I really think the pelican is an interesting bird all by itself. You have a real neat abstract going here with the whites of his wings and the white in the middle. The water has its own pattern/reflection which give us something more to look at thus keeping us in the shot for a longer period of time. Well seen. Regards Ron.

I feel like a bird flying above this pelican :) The water looks truly awesome and the colour of it suits so well with the colour of the beak. Fascinating shot!
