Dalmatian pelicans on Lake Kerkini, Greece - 18 Jan 2015

They may look large and ungainly, not to mention almost prehistoric in appearance, but these Dalmatian pelicans show what a delicate touch they have as they come into land on water. Landscape and wildlife photographer Drew Buckley captured these enigmatic birds in action as they went about their daily lives on Lake Kerkini in northern Greece. While on a weekend trip with Natures Lens, Brit Drew's photos show the pelicans transforming from calm and serene - gliding above the mirror-like surface of the lake - to fast and frantic as a large group squabble over fish. Drew comments: "Lake Kerkini is the most important place in Europe for the globally threatened Dalmatian Pelican which, thankfully, can be observed here in great numbers during the winter months. "With mirror like reflections backed by high snowy peaks, Lake Kerkini is stunning place to be and a real paradise for bird watchers".
