Description
Fly By - The American white pelican, a relative of the ocean-going brown pelican, gathers in small pockets of undisturbed habitat near the Upper Mississippi River, Green Bay, Lake Butte des Morts, and at Horicon Marsh. Adult white pelicans are large birds, weighing 16 pounds with an impressive 9-foot wing span. They consume an average of 3 pounds of fish per day. In September, white pelicans leave their nesting grounds and head south. This American White Pelican was spotted flying over Beaver Dam Lake, near by the Horicon Marsh, in Wisconsin.
