Sunday morning started with the sudden stopover of this fine fellow on our bow. Maybe he came to check out the new bowsprit. Maybe he was new to the neighborhood and just wanted to be friendly. Maybe he knew Ron cooks the best meals in the marina and it was time to eat. Who knows why the unexpected visit but I was outside in a heartbeat, camera in hand, to welcome him to our home. Ron just wanted him off the boat before he fouled ( pun intended ) the floor, but I am always eager to make the acquaintance of these magnificent creatures. 
Upclose and personal with a neighborhood pelican. We had quite a one sided discussion on a variety of topics during his time aboard Argo's bow. He showed no fear of me though I was only about 3 feet from him a goodly share of our time. I couldn't talk him into leaving so Ron finally made a short appearance and convinced him to quietly move along, unfortunately not before he left us a parting gift. 
Discussing his impending departure. Adios. Hasta luego.
Slowly sauntering off the port side.
And with a splash he was off.
