How big is the Dalmatian Pelican (Pelecanus crispus)? Pretty darn big. 😳 One of the world’s largest flying animals, this mighty bird has a wingspan of 11 ft (3.4 m) and weighs up to 28 lbs (12.7 kg). It can be spotted in parts of Eastern Europe to China during breeding season, and in the Mediterranean during winters. It prefers to inhabit wetlands, where it can find fish such as carp and eel.Photo: Sue Cro, CC BY-NC 2.0, flickr

Finds from the thrift I work at!
Two tshirts that I got a chuckle over
One precious pelican sweater that didn’t fit no matter how hard I tried
Some of those fancy candles with Googly eyes glued on
And a precious wuzzles game 🙏

I’m so happy that The Boy and The Heron gives representation as to how truly disgusting birds are. Don’t get me wrong, I love a little feathered freak, but those guys are nasty as hell.

blue brine drifter
trawler of solitary spaces
glides in on a wave
of ultramarine
tentative feathers
teeter on the scales
lured to stillness by
a lingering affinity for green

Hey, do you think Quetzalcoatlus used to bite everything like pelicans do?
I'm picturing this one trying an exploratory nibble on the elephant beastie in the background, with a predictable lack of success.
