Pelican Yoga, for real (#11 in “a shining moment” series)

One day, when the global pandemic is over, I’ll post a sequence of photos that show how this brief but intense example of “pelican yoga” unfolded.

It occurred during the last half hour of sunlight, yesterday, 03 April, at Lake Monger, just minutes away from Perth’s very centre, which is an almost-dead centre, now.

To a human observer, the “Yogic” pelican’s actions were startling, amazing.

To his or her pelican peers, they warranted no response whatsoever.

The Australian album in question is warmly recommended.

I have grave reservations about the big “c” Catholic institution.

However, bassist Lloyd Swanton’s little “c” catholics have always proved an entirely benign musical force.
