Pelican Feeding in Kalbarri

Last month we spent a few days in Kalbarri where the pelicans know the time of day. Every morning at precisely 8-45 they come up from the river to the grassed area where they know a fish or two will be on the menu for breakfast.

Here comes another fish, mine mine

 

 

Oh well, back to river to catch our own

Pelican Feeding At Kalbarri

These pics are from the archives, one just appeared on the screensaver so I thought it an appropriate posting for Wildbird Wednesday. At the coastal resort town of Kalbarri, Western Australia, local volunteers feed the pelicans daily. They turn up at the same time each  day for a fish.  They are not overfed so don't risk fending for themselves and  make a popular attraction for the tourists. I will show you some of the spectacular scenery from around the area in another post.
