    They look so cute .. as if they were rugged up against the cold. It is a shame they are in captivity.

    Hi
    Thanks for your comment

    The Pelicans were wet as they had just finished playing in the water the female (front) was chasing the male then they settled down together to dry out, it was a warm day

    Unfortunatley they are highly endangered and are captive for breeding purposes

    Love this , where are these pelicans from?

  • francophotos replied

    Hi Karen
    Thank you for your comment and interest

    These are a pair of Great White Pelican found at Combe Martin Wildlife Park North Devon England

    They originally breed from southeastern Europe through Asia and in Africa in swamps and shallow lakes

    Unfortunatley this species has declined greatly through habitat loss and persecution
