I’m sure everyone has seen the American White Pelican at some point…perhaps in one of the many manmade ponds within the city.
If traveling outside the city near Lockport, Selkirk or Gimli you may have noticed them soring high overhead in a group.
Their main food source is fish and hunt for them singly or in a group as they are a very social bird…often congregating forming a circle around a school of fish when located and begin feeding.
Pelicans being the largest bird you will find in Manitoba with a wingspan of up to 90 in.
Would be pretty hard to mistake them for another bird.
