Shot of an Australian Pelican done at Stony Point, Victoria, Australia.The Australian pelican is not globally threatened and is evaluated as a least-concern species on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
This bird is a large waterbird widespread on the inland and coastal waters of Australia and New Guinea, Fiji, parts of Indonesia and as a vagrant in New Zealand. They can be found in large lakes, reservoirs, billabongs and rivers, as well as estuaries, swamps and coastal lagoons. It has been recorded as having the longest bill of any living bird.
Nesting is communal, with colonies located on islands or sheltered areas close to lakes or the sea. After the eggs hatch, the larger one will be fed more, and the smaller one will eventually die of starvation or be killed by its close relatives.
