“The magnificent bird, the pelican – its beak can hold more than its belly can!” Pelicans are emblematic members of our local marine community. Students will learn about the unique adaptations and behaviors of both Brown and White Pelicans, comparing their hunting methods and migration patterns. We’ll examine Pelican feathers and bones, use nets to model hunting methods and observe them in the field. Grab your binoculars and join us to search the shores for our feathered friends.
