St. James's Park: Pairs

Prettier plumage and poses in large.
Back blip

Got home late after an evening at the Coliseum seeing Satyagraha (*gasp* *Struggles to process*).
Visited the St. James's Park birds in the early afternoon; the pelicans were being rather timid at their feeding (perhaps due to the larger crowd that the better weather afforded?), but put on an amusing show nonetheless, and preened prettily as the sun got lower.
We also spend time with the little cow geese, and some shelducks being harassed by a ruddy shelduck.
Might be back at St. James's Park again today (17th).

Today's other St. James's Park pics are on Flickr here (or right from here).
