A pelican (genus Pelecanus, family Pelecanidae) is a large sea bird with long bill for scooping up fish. When it eats, it fills it's bill with fish, and a large pouch underneath the lower part of the beak inflates and can carry large amounts at a time.
Oh a wonderful bird is the pelican,
it's mouth can hold more than it's belly can.
It can hold in it's beak
enough food for a week,
but I don't know how the hell it can.
Parrots are characterised by their strong curved beaks which are specially shaped to enable parrots to crack open hard shells of large seeds or nuts. They have strong claws on their feet for gripping perches. Two of the toes face forwards and two face backwards. This gives them extra grip for climbing and it is one of the reasons why you will often see wild parrots in Australia hanging upside down on branches or swinging around telephone wires. Many parrots fly erratically, rather than smoothly. This is to enable easier escape from Birds of Prey such as hawks and falcons. Gliding and hovering birds of prey find it difficult to catch a parrot flying erratically through the air. Parrots have an acute sense of both hearing and sight. This is vital for helping them to escape from predators. Parrots can blend in with the brightly coloured fruit and flowers around their habitat.

Here they are: American White Pelican (Pelecanus erythrorhynchos) Found in North America, primarily in inland lakes, rivers, and marshes. Known for its large, bright white body with black wingtips and an orange bill. Brown Pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis) Found along the coasts of the Americas. Smaller than most pelican species, with distinctive brown and gray plumage and a penchant for diving to catch fish. Great White Pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus) Found in parts of Africa, Europe, and Asia. Known for its large size, white body, pinkish-yellow bill, and communal nesting habits. Pink-backed Pelican (Pelecanus rufescens) Found in Africa and parts of the Arabian Peninsula. Smaller than the Great White Pelican, with a pale pinkish back and grayish-white body. Dalmatian Pelican (Pelecanus crispus) Found in parts of Europe and Asia, especially around wetlands. Recognizable by its large size, curly feathers on the head, and silver-gray plumage. Australian Pelican (Pelecanus conspicillatus) Found throughout Australia, New Guinea, and parts of Indonesia. Known for its exceptionally large bill, one of the longest of any bird, and its black and white plumage. Peruvian Pelican (Pelecanus thagus) Found along the Pacific coast of South America, primarily in Peru and Chile. Similar in appearance to the Brown Pelican but larger and with darker plumage. Spot-billed Pelican (Pelecanus philippensis) Found in South Asia, particularly in India, Sri Lanka, and Southeast Asia. Recognizable by the spots on its bill and its pale plumage. Each species has adapted to its environment in unique ways, from foraging methods to plumage colors, and together, they represent a fascinating diversity within the pelican family.
