So, while Alcatraz isn't explicitly related to the hymn, both concepts share symbolic connections to strength, resilience, and the idea of being a safe refuge — key themes in Rock of Ages. Sure! There are eight species of pelicans in the world, each with unique characteristics, habitats, and behaviors. 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.
