Thanks, Elizabeth. This sentinel was a tri-colored heron. We believe he was guarding a nest in the dunes behind him. We drove up the beach, had a picnic lunch, went shelling, stopped to take many photos, and he was still standing guard in the same spot more than four hours later.
The pelicans are called brown pelicans, although they look gray, white and yellow to me!
Now my husband tells me I need to learn to crop and enhance my photos...

@sueinmn, and all... Sue, I think it'd be fun to learn to crop and enhance your wonderful photos, but for me they're perfection in action!
Interestingly, I thought they were a different kind of Pelican than we have in Florida, the brown pelican. All the brown pelicans I've seen here, I'm not an expert at all, are actually brown. I wouldn't have thought yours are brown... They are beautiful. My fiancé loved pelicans and had an Audobon print, huge...My son loves it and has it in his living room! Personally, I love the blue heron, or your magnificent tricolor. He's lovely and does appear to be on guard. Good Daddy Heron!
You know how to enjoy this crazy life we have. I've learned a bunch from you about a part of the US I've never visited to my dismay. Is your breathing improved in the desert? Or have they imported so many plants and trees they added the pollen we experience in our home states? And did you find some good shells? I loved shelling and walking on the beach especially early morning. Sounds like a great day with good friends...
Enjoy and be blessed...Elizabeth.
