Field Notes

Notes:

These pelicans were wild and I saw them in Hyde Park, London. There are quite a few pink pelicans in Hyde Park, so i suppose that it is where they live.

Very nice! Please can you provide some info about where you saw this in your notes. I'm assuming this was in a zoo so you can also add this to the Captive Animals mission.
