Brown Pelicans drawing & photo: First Friday Art

Here’s a pen and ink drawing I did of a Brown Pelican. Brown Pelicans are big seabirds with a unique appearance.

They capture fish by diving into the water and scooping them up in their stretchy throat pouches.

I saw several Brown Pelicans perched on posts at Seafarer’s Park in Warrenton, Oregon last summer.

Seagulls and cormorants perched and flew nearby. This park is at the mouth of the Columbia River. It’s not far from Fort Stevens State Park, a popular destination for campers.
