About this work
Juvenile Brown Pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis) at Bodega Harbor, California, United States. After reporting this beringed bird at the International Bird Rescue Center San Francisco, its Director Emeritus Jay Holcomb sent me this message: “Thanks so much for reporting this bird. It came into our clinic for rehabilitation on July 17, 2012. It was thin, weak and contaminated with fish oil from the fish processing stations. It was released at Ft. Baker under the Golden Gate Bridge on August 17, 2012.”
