      Yes, they are the giant white pelicans who hang out at Oakwood Lakes State Park during warm months. This year their numbers are up because many of the prairie pothole ponds have dried up while Oakwood lakes are just down some to provide roosting sand bars.

    Beautiful colors in the top photo and an impressive number of pelicans in the second.

    Nice reflections and composition. I never knew pelicans came this far north. Nice work.

    Looks so peaceful. Nice shots! I was surprised to see seagulls near Dallas and I'm even more surprised to see pelicans in South Dakota. :)

    Beautiful photos and reflections! I see that the pelicans are at Oakwood Lakes State Park. My daughter and her husband have a cabin near there.

    You could almost be an honorary Aussie with that clear blue sky over a wild lake edge and the pelicans!! Beautiful!!!
