After 40 million years, a pelican is basically a dog with wings.

Yesterday, I wished I had a pocketful of fish.

Hi guys!

How've you been? Good? Good!

;-)

I won't be around much online for the next few days.
Today and tomorrow I'm doing photos with Magic Christian now that the whole band is together. Friday night is their show at the Great American Music Hall, so I hope some of you can make it. (Tix are still available.)

But in the meantime, I wanted to share something cool that happened yesterday.

I met this little fellow.



He was hanging out on one of the piers over at Crissy Field, and a few people were giving him little tiny fish that they had caught.



He/she (how does one tell) was obviously not shy. I got quite close to take these shots.
It's so exciting to see a non-human little person up close (this fella did have a cute personality so to me he was definitely a person.)



Just another San Franciscan enjoying the fine day and the company of others.

You can see more pics of my little buddy here.

And you can learn more about pelicans here. After I took these photos, I was so fascinated by what I had captured that I wanted to learn more.

More Movie Star Sightings

This was even better than seeing Bud Cort tonight! Look who else I saw today!

Here's a little real San Francisco movie stardom...

Hopefully some of you saw this movie because it's really wonderful.

Of course I was totally freaking out about these guys. And I got some great photos but they'll have to wait. I have got to go to sleep before I pass out in my chair.

Let's just say that not every day is Photographic Nirvana in Tangobabyland.

Did you know that rodents as well as humans can benefit from a tooth whitening program such as Brite Smile? I think we need to sponsor this poor dear and get him some Crest WhiteStrips. (Click photo to enlarge and you'll definitely see he isn't flossing regularly either.)

And I was mooned by a blue jay.

But I did get to molest a magnolia and looky at what's inside:

Purty.

I didn't want you to think I was just screwing around on the first Official Day of the Staycation, and throwing butter on the floor all willy-nilly. I did try to take some photos today, but let's just say that you're not going to see most of them.

I really should go to sleep now. After today's adventure, who knows what tomorrow will bring?! I'm gonna need a lot of batteries.

nitey-nite, friends.
