The majestic Pelecanus conspicillatus, also known as the Australian Pelican, graces the skies of various regions in Australia. With its wings outstretched, it elegantly alights on a perch in Noosaville, Sunshine Coast, Queensland. This magnificent bird can also be spotted at Marlgu Billabong in far northeast Western Australia, where it shares its habitat with the Pied Heron. Kangaroo Island in South Australia is another destination where these pelicans gather. Whether gracefully gliding on water or perched on a railing looking slightly awkward but undeniably charming, they captivate all who encounter them. Their presence adds to the beauty of this picturesque island. Art enthusiasts will appreciate seeing an exquisite depiction of an Australian Pelican captured on paper by a talented artist and featured on page 92. The intricate details bring this remarkable creature to life. From Albany's Oyster Harbour in Western Australia to Goolwa on Fleurieu Peninsula in South Australia, these pelicans continue to enchant observers with their grace and elegance, and are often seen congregating at The Entrance in New South Wales as well. With their striking white plumage and distinctive bill pouches that can hold up to 13 liters of water or fish, the Australian Pelican stands out among other avian species. These coastal wetland dwellers are truly a sight to behold and represent the natural wonders that abound throughout Australia's diverse landscapes.
