So today's news includes the story of Ralph the Pelican, proving that our feathered friends are more than just precise weather predictors.
They have a sense of fun, and love of travel, as well as the risque. For more here the link to the story is below.

And in addition to all that, they are some of the most beautiful birds in flight that I've seen. Their flying formations change, in a way that can only be described as balletic, swooping and dipping in flight, and morphing from a V, to an S, and back.
How something which appears so non-aerodynamic, can fly so gracefully, and so well in formation, is a mystery to me......
Clearly, they do not worry about the idea that functionally a bird with that body type should not be a graceful flyer........nor do they let the reality of their less than ideal aerodynamic design stop them from providing poetry in the sky.......
