9' wing span
16 pound body
5' tall
13-3/4" bill. The American White Pelican
All that stands between me and him..... a 6' net.
I had to hold it out so he could continually snap at it (and not me) while, one handed, I removed 3 pounds of dead fish from his pool, drain the pool, spray out his area, tip the pool, spray some more, fill the pool and put the 3 pounds of dead fish back.
And to think last week, I was thinking the gulls and green heron were intimidating.
Like I said.... my weekly Fear Factor.
