Thank you Akira and Mike for commenting. The adult Pelecanus crispus usually sports this kind of "unkempt" hair.

Speaking of pelicans, I just got back from Baja California.  Not surprisingly, we met some pelicans.  Here's one:

Visited Klamath Basin Wildlife Refuge (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klamath_Basin_National_Wildlife_Refuge_Complex)...


Fun place to visit for sure.

In Klamath Falls there is a park where you can see the Grebes do their mating ritual dance.

Tim also need to stop at Collier Logging Museum  just North of Chiloquin.
Neat place with alot of old logging equipment and buildings to check out.
Don't miss out on the Dippers by the creek.
