Kim, it's at the ocean, I actually was in Viña del Mar, not in Santiago. And I have another spot for the pelican too, look at my pics ;)
Thanks Fyn !

Yes this spotting is. The pelican should have it's own spotting as per PN guidelines.

Were these taken at a lake or at the ocean? Can't tell from your location marker.

On PN you should put that shot in a separate spotting.
