Pelican Rescue

Earlier this morning, this little pelican was found weak and starving on the sidewalk around Pier 41. He was carefully taken and put in a carrier case, where he soon was picked up by animal control. He will be fed and nursed to health before released back into the wild. While once endangered, the pelican population around the Bay has been steadily increasing.  However, it still sometimes proves a challenge for the young ones to find enough food. We hope our new pelican friend gets well soon!
