Have you ever encountered the pelicans in St. James's Park, London? It's more than a little unsettling when they approach as you stroll through the park, but they make for fantastic iconic photos when they cross over to Horseguards Parade. I'm sure the ones we met were deliberately posing for shots!
The pelicans have been in the park since 1664, a gift from the Russian Ambassador. They spend their days lounging on their favourite rocks in the middle of the lake (hopefully in the sunshine!). Despite being free to roam they hang around the rocks the majority of their time and just occasionally cause great excitement if they wander around the park and beyond. Just be warned they like to sit on park benches next to picnicking visitors - can't think why can you - and maybe cause a park pelican picnic panic?
