A Pelican Island Retreat
One of the most delightful and (in my opinion goofy-looking) creatures here in SW Florida are our pelicans. These people friendly birds live year-round on the bridge between mainland Fort Myers and Sanibel. Of course, there are plenty all through out SW Florida. But on the bridges where people are fishing seems to be their favorite hang-out. Can you blame them? After all, in their eyes, they see people as their personal chefs who daily bring them some tasty morsel. And watching them fly parallel alongside my car as I drive over the bridge always gives me the giggles. Pelicans are often requested in the custom murals. Sometimes as just a little touch flying in the distance. Other times, they are front and center. Here’s a fun mural recently painted onto the exterior entrance of a home:
This home owner adores pelicans. Florida is their second home and their favorite retreat:
