A myth has been built around the pelican, one of the oldest
surviving birds. It is commonly held belief that the mother feeds
her chicks on her own blood. So people have regarded the
pelican as the most affectionate and beautiful bird.
The large bill of the bird makes it very easy to recognise it. It has
a short tail, short legs, long wings and a large bag under its bill.
Because of its webbed toes the pelican finds walking on the land
difficult.
However, it is a delight to watch these birds in flight. The pelican
has figured among the largest of birds. It has a wing span of 2.
75 metres and weighs between 4.5 and 11 kg. It lives in places
with a moderate climate. It migrates to India, Africa and Iran in
winter because its wings do not give sufficient protection against
the cold. The brown pelican is the smallest of the pelicans. It
dives its head long into water from quite a height to get at its prey.
The other six species of pelicans have a white plummage.
Pelicans are very sociabel birds.They travel, rest, nest and even
fish together. The young pelicans take wings when they are about two months old. The nest of pelicans are far from the
source of any food therefore the adults have to fly great distances
to get food. Q1. why do pelicans migrate.​
