For other uses, see Pelican (disambiguation).Along with the darters, cormorants, gannets, boobies, frigatebirds, and tropicbirds, pelicans make up the order Pelecaniformes.North (American White Pelicans, P.Pelicans are large birds with enormous, pouched bills.The smallest is the Brown Pelican (P.The largest is believed to be the Dalmatian Pelican (P.Pelicans swim well with their short, strong legs and their feet with all four toes webbed (as in all birds placed in the order Pelecaniformes).The wings are long and have the unusually large number of 30 to 35 secondary flight feathers.Pelicans rub the backs of their heads on their preen glands to pick up its oily secretion, which they transfer to their plumage to waterproof it.Brown, plus the Peruvian Pelican, which nests on sea rocks).The Peruvian Pelican is sometimes considered conspecific with the Brown Pelican.The regular diet of a Pelican usually consists of fish, but they also eat amphibians, crustaceans and on some occasions, smaller birds.They often catch fish by expanding the throat pouch.This operation takes up to a minute, during which time other seabirds are particularly likely to steal the fish.Pelicans in their turn sometimes pirate prey from other seabirds.The white pelicans often fish in groups.They will form a line to chase schools of small fish into shallow water, and then simply scoop them up.Rarely, other species such as the Peruvian Pelican and the Australian Pelican practice this method.James' Park in London was once filmed eating a fully grown Pigeon alive.Reproduction
Pelicans are gregarious and nest colonially.They can finish the process in a day.The female heaping the material up to form a simple structure.They may display when changing shifts.The young are fed copiously.Young of all species fledge 10 to 12 weeks after hatching.The most common is believed to be the Australian Pelican (though some estimates have placed the White Pelican at a higher population).Prehistoric genera have been named Protopelicanus and Miopelecanus.The supposed Miocene pelican Liptornis from Argentina is a nomen dubium, being based on hitherto indeterminable fragments.The IBTS corporate logo incorporates a stylised pelican.Larco Museum Collection Lima, Peru.In medieval Europe, the pelican was thought to be particularly attentive to her young, to the point of providing her own blood when no other food was available.As a result, the pelican became a symbol of the Passion of Jesus and of the Eucharist.Another version of this is that the pelican used to kill its young and then resurrect them with its blood, this being analogous to the sacrifice of Jesus.Thus the symbol of the Irish Blood Transfusion Service (IBTS) is a pelican, and for most of its existence the headquarters of the service was located at Pelican House in Dublin, Ireland.For example, the emblems of both Corpus Christi College, Cambridge and Corpus Christi College, Oxford are pelicans, showing its use as a medieval Christian symbol ('Corpus Christi' means 'body of Christ').Likewise a folktale from India says that a pelican killed her young by rough treatment but was then so contrite that she resurrected them with her own blood.Alternatively it may be that pelicans look as if they are stabbing themselves as they often press their bill into their chest to fully empty their pouch.The symbol is used today on the Louisiana state flag and Louisiana state seal, as the Brown pelican is the Louisiana state bird.Likewise, the pelican is featured prominently on the seal of Louisiana State University.They placed emphasis on animals and often depicted pelicans in their art."Pelicans", in Christopher Perrins (Ed."Pelican swallows pigeon in park", BBC News (25 October 2006).Retrieved on 25 October 2006."Pelican's pigeon meal not so rare", BBC News (30 October 2006).Retrieved on 7 May 2007.IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.Benson, Elizabeth, The Mochica: A Culture of Peru.New York, NY: Praeger Press.Brown Pelicans, Melbourne, Florida, USA.Eastern White Pelican, Blackpool Zoo.External links

4.Pelican as a metal band...Speaking on the plethora of labels used to describe Pelican's genre, bassist Bryan Herweg states that "it's flattering, really", and that "I take that as nobody being able to classify what we're doing.As for the instrumental nature of the band, Herweg states that "I think there are limitations that come with having a vocalist.If we had some big burly man in front screaming, we'd be classified as metal.This article or section reads like a review and may need a cleanup.Please help improve this article to make it neutral in tone and meet Wikipedia's quality standards.Though an instrumental band, the music of Pelican certainly does have a thematic center.The overwhelming motif is that of nature, specifically aspects grand in scale.Albums Australasia and March into the Sea both clearly set the massive aspect of nature as a theme in their title.Song names are often even more evocative; for example, from The Fire in Our Throats Will Beckon the Thaw: "Last Day of Winter", "Autumn into Summer", "Aurora Borealis" and "Sirius"; from their eponymous debut: "Mammoth" and "Woods"; from Australasia: "NightEndDay" and "Drought"."Pelican: "Pelican speak softly and carry more than just big riffs on the monolithic City of Echoes""."Pelican: "We're neither trend setters nor trend followers""."Pelican's music tough to categorize"".Additional reading
