Pelicans Fly in Odd-Numbered Flocks – Right?
SUMMARY: Observing Brown Pelicans flying in formation is captivating, especially when they align in V-shaped patterns. This fascination deepened in the mid-90s when a friend, Jerry Porche, mischievously questioned why pelicans fly in odd-numbered flocks. This sparked a years-long quest for the author to count the birds, though they eventually spotted a flock of two, leading to Jerry’s witty remark about a ‘late third bird.’ Reflecting on this experience, the author realizes Jerry’s question ignited curiosity about nature, highlighting how friendships can inspire passions. Now, encountering two-pelican flocks evokes laughter and fond memories of Jerry, reminding us to appreciate shared wonders.
