See me…see you – I met a silver pelican!

“What’s up mate? What are you doing here in my kingdom? You ‘d better not come any closer, because I will spread my huge wings and start dancing in the wind.”

I met this messed haired guy in the dawn, when the first sunbeam was coloring the horizon. I’ve never met such a look before, for sure!

The silver pelican is one of the biggest birds in the world. Its height is up to more than a meter and its wingspan is up to 3.20 meters. It seems to particularly prefer the wetlands of Greece for reproduction. It is considered one of the rarest bird species and is protected by international regulations.
