White Pelicans are some of the largest birds in North America. They can have wingspans of up to 9 feet!

Cute capture. Pelicans are also some of the funniest birds to watch!

We had 25 white pelicans at our man made lake in San Diego. They are not supposed to be here. They stayed for awhile, and now some return.
You're right, they look like planes when they fly. They are only second to the Condor in wingspan.

Nicely caught! Not the usual pose, and that makes it interesting!

I need to see one of these in flight. Nice work not having the whites blow out.
