Victor Harbor Pelicans

For Christmas we went to visit Granny who just had her house built in Normanville, south of Adelaide. Mr Fixit was busy with all sorts of minor Bob the Builder type things, while the kids played with the new plastic contraptions so favoured at this time of year.

When we were there, we went to Victor Harbor, major holiday destination in South Australia. Many people go to see the whales, which hang out at various times of the year. Personally I like the pelicans. I can still remember seeing my first one in the wild on Kangaroo Island, the first time I came to South Australia. They are ungainly, very interesting birds. Hannah used to hate me for calling them Smelicans.
