Enjoying the gifts of the day with two dogs
We have lived on our street on the salt marsh for three years and have seen white pelicans on the Tolomato River and flying overhead, but have not seen them on our local retention ponds. Recently, we saw them on the retention ponds actively fishing. They fish by swimming on the water and dipping their bills in to scoop up fish. This particular pond is saltier than the other three ponds on our street and has mullet in it. The mullet regularly leap out of the water, so the pond has acquired the name “Jumping Fish Pond.”
