User's notes

Sorry, not a great photo, I took it while I was cycling into work on Thursday. I saw these two pelicans sleeping beside the pedestrian bridge on the north side of Lake Burley Griffin. I had seen two pelicans in the same locations a few weeks ago but I did not stop then to take a photo.
