Odesa region. The enemy is once again bombarding the unbreakable region with missiles. Rescuers are eliminating the large-scale consequences of the shelling. It is a difficult job. They work hour after hour, overcoming fatigue. Suddenly, hundreds of pelicans appear in the sky. They circle over the firefighters. So snow-white, with their wings proudly spread. They fly through the dark, thick clouds of smoke and emerge again, just as bright and white
The agency notes that no matter how dark the enemy tries to plunge Ukrainians into, "the light will always be with us, in our hearts.
For reference
Pelicans are rare birds listed in the Red Book of Ukraine, among the largest wetland birds in the world, with a wingspan of up to 3.2 m and weighing up to 11 kg. Pelicans are paddle-footed birds - they have a well-developed swimming membrane on their feet, which is turned inward. They use it to row skillfully and quickly.
Out of 8 species of pelicans, 2 species live in Ukraine - Dalmatian and Dalmatian pink. A characteristic feature of the Dalmatian pelican is the corresponding feathers on the back of the head, sometimes quite long. Dalmatian pelicans in Southeastern Europe form a single population, so the birds can easily migrate throughout the region. Pink pelicans are rather large birds that have white plumage with a pale pink tint.
When traveling in the air, birds use rising currents to soar without exerting much effort.
Recall
Dozens of pink and Dalmatian pelicans have returned to the Kyiv Zoo's lakes, enjoying clean water, natural stones, fresh fish and sunbathing spots.
