On one of my trips to London, one of these guys walked right up to me when I was waiting for a friend in St. James Park. I remember being surprised at how tall he was.
The wide variety of birds in St James's Park always has a soothing effect on my spirits. More info on the park and its pelicans, including a photo showing how big they are, can be found here: http://www.royalparks.org.uk/parks/st_james_park/flora_fauna/pelicans.cfm I take most things in my stride but the first time I saw a flock of green parakeets flying in London almost caused me to crash my bike. http://youtu.be/p4P_NhFlb5w
Tolerating all the attention.
Thats a huge ass bird.
ReplyDeleteMy mom would have been saying 'Don't touch the bird, he's dirty!'lol
