Danube last

A last lot of photos from tuesday, our last day touring in the delta. Photos are not in order, I still have not figured out how to do that, but will try to talk to all photos here. a few shots will show our morning outing to see the sunrise and one of the sunset from the night before. In the morning we went up to the top channel to get into a certain lake to look for shorebirds. We went past some old Russian infrastructure put up in the
70s when they were draining wetlands to turn land into agriculture. All that is abandoned now so you see buildings like these and the odd herd of animals, but otherwise the land is just sitting high and dry. On this last day we got to a number of large lakes but they are still shallow, so getting across them is very slow and before lunch we actually got stuck and had to shimmy around quite a bit and move from one side or the other of the boat to get it moving again. Heading back to Tulcea we saw numerous fisherman all along the way who looked like fisherman. Our vary last lake had hundreds of pelicans and because my camera is not good for distance you will only see a line of white in the distance. This lne of white is around 500 white pelicans which were wheeling around whenever we got a bit closer. I think I put in one of my frog photos as well. All in all it was a wonderful few days seeing a small portion of the delta. I hope you have enjoyed my amateur photographing efforts. Home soon.
