Three American White Pelicans (Pelecanus erythrorhynchos) in the water, their large orange bills open and overlapping as they struggle over a fish, with splashing water adding energy to the scene. Species: American White Pelican Genus: Pelecanus Family: Pelecanidae

A fierce moment of competition as pelicans wrestle over a freshly caught fish, wings and bills colliding in the foamy water.

“Survival is never silent—it’s a clash of wings, water, and will.”

A wonderful bird is the pelican, His bill will hold more than his belican, He can take in his beak. Enough food for a week. But I'm damned if I see how the helican!

A wonderful bird is a pelican,
His bill will hold more than his belican.
He can take in his beak
Food enough for a week;
But I'm damned if I see how the helican.

An Australian pelican, a large white bird with partially black wings, yellow fish-like eyes, and an absurdly large pale pink bill, is lunge feeding in the water. The photo is caught mid-lunge, with the pelican's neck fully extended, its head turned sideways, and the pink sack on the bottom bill distended full of water. The sea water around is grey-silver with pale yellow highlights from the late afternoon sun. There are ripples from wind, and tiny ripples from droplets sprayed by the pelican mid-lunge. There are also some bubbles at the pelican's side. The overall effect is both graceful and ungainly

Another bird picture - this is one of a flock of pelicans local to me, and I have many, many photos of them. When I was a small child pelicans frightened me, because I genuinely thought they might try to eat me up.
