I have done this sometimes with the M40/2.8. Fits in a pocket (well a coat pocket anyway). Do Pelicans need a rest room? Maybe after a long flight I guess. Otherwise a relaxed scene.

Thanks

I haven't used the 50/2 in quite a while and had forgotten how small it is - not as petite as the M40, though!

Short answer, yes (well not my dog though), long answer - The dog will have been sitting in that white "box" behind the jump in the photo. The dog's owner, some distance away, at the other end of the ring gave a command by hand (no voice) to direct the dog to come to them via either the bar jump (pictured above) or a solid jump as below (same camera, same lens, same trial, different puppy)

I always admire people that get their dogs to do things .
Mine would do opposite …. But still lovable …

This was taken 2 years after major flooding had occurred in 2007. Water still persisted. And so did the Pelicans (Pelecanus conspicillatus). I guess it's one advantage of living on a property where the topography maps say "Subject to Inundation". *istD, Tamron SP 500mm f/8 mirror lens.
