The Brown Pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis) is found in coastal areas of the western United States. It is smaller than the American White Pelican, and different in that it plunge-dives for fish in the water, from the air. It measures about 51 inches in length and about 8.2 pounds in weight. It has a large bill with a gular pouch, white head with a yellowish wash, grayish and dark brown streaked body, and black legs/feet.
