Pelican
I photographed this pelican at Healesville Sanctuary, a beautiful 31-hectare zoo which exhibits only Australian species in a natural bushland setting.

Pelican belongs to the following groups:

What a huge bunch of comments Margot, and for obvious reason ! With a beak like that they say “The beak of a Pelican can hold more than his Bellycan”. Here you have the bird looking like he’s enjoying his surrounds, feels like a king and would never want to leave. His contrast with the darker water is very effective.
