Pelicans: Guardians of the Shore

Pelicans: Guardians of the Shore

Guardians of the shore and iconic beach birds, pelicans are some of the most easily recognizable birds on earth. 

Symbols of abundance and tolerance in some cultures, pelicans are unique predators that are able to soar and dive with elegance despite their bulky, somewhat ungraceful bodies.  

Pelicans are characterized by their long beaks that have large, hanging throat pouches. They use them to feed by scooping and draining water to catch prey.
