Brown Pelican Pelecanus occidentalis. Brown Pelicans were always present and regularly dove for fish, as you can see in the above photo. In addition to the White-crowned Pigeons there were White-winged Doves that were more tame than anywhere I had ever seen them, Zenaida Doves , and feral Rock Pigeons.

They see a lot of young Brown Pelicans ; they see a lot of juvenile birds in general, all of whom tend to hug the coast on their first migration. KWWC also has a thriving feral chicken sideline. Key West Wildlife Center takes mostly birds, but will rescue mammals, marine mammals, and both land and sea turtles as well.

Little Black Cormorants and Australian Pelican. The heat of the day encouraged the Australian Pelicans to rise up into the thermals and we understand that they spend time between the lake systems at Currawinya and Lake Bindegolly National Parks. Australian Pelicans soaring in the thermals. Feral pigs. Turtle shell.

Boat-tailed Grackles were ubiquitous and at any time a Brown Pelican could fly overhead. One massively negative aspect of birding Tybee Island is the sheer volume of feral cats and outdoor cats. The beaches and ocean of Tybee Island had the expected species like Royal Tern , Brown Pelican , and Black Skimmer. I hope not!

Black-fronted Dotterels , Magpie-larks and Willie Wagtails ran along the muddy edges where there was evidence of feral pigs. We chose to camp at the far end of Lake Canellan to be as far away from others as possible and to enjoy the bird-life in the area. Ducks were also well represented by Pacific Black Ducks and Australian Wood Duck.

Okay, that choice is something to be expected, but how about this: some seven years ago I was guiding another British couple to a nearby fish farm where I was happy to show them the Great White Pelican – the only one I have ever seen in Serbia! Should I add, for the crow, there was no need to leave the city.

Rounding off the waterbirds were Australian Pelicans, Eurasian Coots , the iconic Black Swans and feral geese. This unique and odd Australian endemic is famous for the strange wattle under the bill of the male, but sadly all I saw was a female.
