Pelicans in peace.

9 Jan, 2016

 

Thousands of American White Pelicans, (Pelecanus Erythrorhynchoson) the lake, Stan. There is a typical fishing village (Petatan) on the other side of the lake where fishermen dump several tons of fish parts into the lake. They fillet the fish for commercial enterprises.
It is a interesting spectacle to see..... all these pelicans gather there for meal. But I believe that not all of them fly there . The ones in front of our house seem to fish on their own.
There is a good photo stream on flicker of local amateur photographer (Steve Miller) which depicts the story.
