Water birds from drive from Alice Springs to Papunya - 2 Mile campspot on Finke River near Glen Helen

I have seen a couple of strange Pelican poses, and this one was keeping its bill warm in its back feathers.

    Some super birds and great pictures, Richard. can't say I've noticed a pelican sitting like that before. They're a nice couple aren't they? The White-faced heron is quite beautiful in that pose too.
