Pelican on Stump Finest Lost Bronze Bird Sculpture by Max Turner ~ Jumbo

Description

Pelicans are a genus of large water birds that makes up the family Pelecanidae. With 8 different species of pelicans, they can be found on all continents except for Antarctica. Pelicans live throughout the world in tropic and temperate zones, and always near bodies of water.

Average life span in the wild is 10 to 25 years or more and up to 54 in captivity. It is easy to identify pelicans, because they are one of the only birds with a pouch under their bill.Along with the giant pouch, pelicans are a large bird with short legs, and they appear rather clumsy on land. Once in the water, they are strong swimmers, thanks to their webbed feet.The largest is Dalmatian pelican (Pelecanus crispus) measuring from 1.6 to 1.8 meters (5.2 to 5.9 feet) in length
