A Pelican Resting by a Harbor Dock
A large pelican perches on top of a stone harbor wall in a fishing port. Beside the bird rests a crate packed with fresh fish and a thick coil of maritime rope.
Coastal Bird Behavior and Fishing Ports
Brown and white pelicans frequent coastal fishing harbors, where they gather near docks and fish packing stations. Pelicans possess a distinctive throat pouch called a gular sac, which expands to scoop up fish and water during feeding dives. Fishing harbors provide quiet perches where these large sea birds rest and dry their feathers between foraging flights.
