Pelicans are mainly seen in pairs or flocks and breeds in Eastern Europe and the Middle East. But this species migrates in India by travelling thousands of kilometres in large numbers during winter and mainly settles in Assam, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Gujarat. Herds can be seen in the rivers and lakes of these Indian states.
This time of India is a better place to live because it is hot. This is the reason why pelicans migrate to India in winter.
The pelican is a genus of large water birds of the Pelecanide family. They have a long beak and a large throat pouch.
They draw water out of the material before the fish swallows it. They mostly have yellow-coloured feathers.
White pelicans migrate from February to March and October to November, during these months the largest population of pelicans can be found in the River lands Migratory Bird Sanctuary.
Pelicans are carnivorous creatures.
Migratory birds are not hunted in our country, but many carnivorous wanderers out of curiosity and stealth hunt them and add them to their food.
