Description
English: Juvenile Brown Pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis) at Bodega Harbor, California, United States. After reporting this beringed bird at the International Bird Rescue Center San Francisco, its Director Emeritus Jay Holcomb sent me this message: “Thanks so much for reporting this bird. It came into our clinic for rehabilitation on July 17, 2012. It was thin, weak and contaminated with fish oil from the fish processing stations. It was released at Ft. Baker under the Golden Gate Bridge on August 17, 2012.”
Deutsch: Junger Braunpelikan (Pelecanus occidentalis) bei Bodega Harbor, Kalifornien, Vereinigte Staaten. Nachdem ich die Beobachtung dieses beringten Tieres beim International Bird Rescue Center in San Francisco gemeldet hatte, schickte mir dessen Director Emeritus Jay Holcomb diese Nachricht: „Vielen herzlichen Dank für die Meldung dieses Vogels. Er kam am 17. Juli 2012 zur Rehabilitation in unsere Klinik. Er war dünn, schwach und mit Fischöl von den Fischverarbeitungsanlagen verschmutzt. Wir haben den Vogel am 17. August bei Fort Baker unter der Golden Gate Bridge wieder in die Freiheit entlassen.“
