Maybe they have to rescue people who get lost trying to follow the confusing signs on the trail that you showed the other day. Or maybe they were following a cow for a guide.

When I read the title, before scrolling down to the photo, I asked myself: "Pelikans in the Alps?"... LOL! Great shots, Karl.
