American White Pelican

 These photos are of the "American White Pelican" taken at Masons WMA in Nevada. They have a huge wingspread of 8 to 9 1/2 ft.

 They are white, with black primaries and a yellow-bill.   They do not plunge from the air like the brown pelicans do.
 

 They scoops up their fish while swimming, often working in groups.  Flocks fly in lines.Their necks are long, tail short.  Legs short.

They nest in colonies on islands.  They can be found in large lakes.

Enjoy life.  It can be short.  Kitfoxgal
