I think I saw a pelican the other day! I think..? I didn’t manage to get a picture but it was huge and definitely looked like a pelican to me. I’m in the UK and didn’t even know we had pelicans, but I did some googling and think it might’ve been a Dalmatian pelican… apparently they’re a pretty rare sight in the UK but I think that’s what it was :D I don’t really have a question or anything, just wanted to ramble about seeing it haha

Wow! Thats a great bird spotting for the UK!
