What the Large Pelican with a Long Beak Shows
The pelican faces forward on two sturdy legs, with its head held high and its long bill extending down over its chest. Short feather markings appear near the neck and the edges of the folded wings. Two simple clouds fill the upper background, while the rest of the scene keeps attention on the bird.
Surprising Facts About Pelicans
A pelican uses the expandable pouch beneath its bill to scoop up fish with water, then drains the water before swallowing its catch. Pelicans often feed on lakes, rivers, lagoons, and sheltered coastal waters. Their webbed feet help them paddle efficiently when swimming.
