Pelican, October 25, 2017

ABC Wednesday, Wild Bird Wednesday, and I'd Rather B Birdin'
P is for Pelican - one of the heaviest flying birds in the world.

Pickwick, Tennessee, USA, August 17, 2017
American White Pelicans, Pelecanus erythrorhynchos, are migratory birds, going as far north as southern Canada to breed in the Summer. In the Winter they can be seen in the United States from southern California across to Florida, and as far south as southern Mexico. They use their large bills to scoop fish from the water to eat.

Have a wonderful day!
