Here
are some images from our first photo expedition of the year,
at Roosevelt Lake about an hour south east of Payson. Two lenses
were used, our new 17-40mm L lens for the wide angle work, and
the 400mm lens for telephoto. The surprise on this trip was to
find two Great American White Pelicans along the shore. They
are huge compared to the thanksgiving sized Canadian geese they
were with. The only larger birds we have ever seen in Arizona
are bald Eagles and California Condors.
