When we travel to California, we make a point of finding pelicans by the ocean -- we love to watch them fly and glide into the water. Sometimes storms will blow them hundreds of miles inland. When they arrive in Arizona, AZ Fish & Wildlife will pick them up and return them to the California coast. We once passed one waiting by the side of the highway; he looked as if he was hitchhiking. We called the authorities and gave them the location, so they could pick him up.Pam in Tucsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10030449989883826414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20633401.post-1144609601992582942006-04-09T20:06:00.000+01:002006-04-09T20:06:00.000+01:00I well remember learning that limerick when I was ...I well remember learning that limerick when I was a child. It didn't change my perspective that pelicans are graceful birds.. Perhaps that is because I usually watched them in flight.
