The pelican over the icy bay
The bird dominates the center of the scene, holding both broad wings open while its long bill points downward. Layered waves surround the pelican, and an ornamental arch rises behind it with repeating geometric shapes. The icy-bay theme joins the bird, moving water, and formal arch into one dramatic coastal composition.
Pelican facts
Pelicans often use rising air currents to glide while conserving energy, and their broad wings are well suited to soaring. The expandable pouch beneath the bill helps a pelican scoop up fish, but it drains the water before swallowing its catch.
