Description
American White Pelicans by Debra Martz
..............................
The large American White Pelican is a winter resident here in south Texas. They usually start arriving in October and most have gone back north by April each year. They are one of the largest birds of North America with wingspans up to 9 feet and weigh around 17-20 pounds though I have read they can reach 30 pounds! In flight, their long white wings and trailing edges are tipped in black. With strong winds today, this group chose to huddle on the shore of the Laguna Madre here in Corpus Christi, Texas.
