You don’t often see pelicans in snow. Their natural habitat is warmer regions than our own. You can’t help feeling they are a bit bewildered by the white-stuff.
However, they are a great attraction (especially at feeding time) at Blackbrook Zoo, which is in the wilder parts of the Staffordshire Moorlands.
Sadly, the zoo, which specialises in exotic birds, has had lots of problems with the recent freezing temperatures, so it is temporarily closed. Should be back open in the next few days, I hope.
Generally, the snow is slowly receding from the ground now.

The weather everywhere is so odd. I live outside of Chicago, and it's just today that we're getting snow .... while in other warmer places, they've already been getting it.
ReplyDeleteI feel sorry for these birds - they probably wonder what the heck's up...
