Description
Percy the Pelican has a wonderful story of recovery. She had been found wrapped in a fishing net, and as she was about to be "discarded" she stirred a little. The owner of the river boat who handled her carefully unwound the nearly gone bird. Now she hangs out on the dock by his boat, and is well fed. The slight pink reflection is from the red boat. She had her beak almost on my shoulder!
This picture was taken in Albany, SW Australia, when I was waiting on a boat to go up the ancient Kalgon River. A wonderful day!
