Description
A pelican pushing its neck bones up through its mouth is truly majestic. It’s nothing specific - they just do it when they yawn.
The Brown Pelicans have oversized bills and a throat that stretches to scoop up fish. They may look somewhat ungainly, even comical, but their diving abilities would easily win them Olympic gold medals. Brown Pelicans diving for food are one of most spectacular sights on Mexico's 10,143 kilometers (6,300 miles) of coastline. The pelicans' large size, graceful flight, and easily caricatured shapes are an attraction throughout their range.

Pelicans Have The Craziest Way Of Yawning... It’s nothing specific - they just do it when they yawn.
