Maintenance of the Pouch

Watching this Pelican stretch his pouch on his neck and then elongate it was interesting. Not sure how this helps it but there must be some reason for this. I have seen this before but this was the 1st time to catch the action throughout. took about 10 seconds from the 1st frame to the last.

Great behavioral series, got to keep that fish grabber in tip top shape.

Interesting..... Nice series you have grabbed. Not something I have witnessed before.

That’s very interesting! I like them all but especially #3 with it being backlit.
