Pelicans are funny-looking birds that are huge and live near water. They have a long beak with a pouch that can hold a lot of fish. They are great at flying and can glide over water using their wings. The wings of a pelican can be as wide as that of a car! They often swim on the water’s surface and dive in to catch fish.
Pelicans work together in catching fish in shallow water so it makes it easier for them to catch fish! The pouch of a pelican can carry about 24 soda cans!
Why did the pelican get kicked out of a restaurant? Because it had a big bill! Wow, that was a nice one! So I have some more such puns just for you! Take a look!
