- Title: Pelican Colony at Anchor Bay
- Description: A huge pelican colony on Haven's Neck Rock north of Anchor Bay, California, harbors hundreds of the birds on this sunny September day. The nesting season for the brown pelican occurs in summer and autumn and adult pairs congregate in densely populated nesting colonies on offshore islands like this one. Adults fly out to sea to forage by plunge diving into fish schools near the surface of the water. When prey species are abundant in very shallow water, pelicans may forage by scooping these small fish from the water surface. Pelicans require several years to reach sexual maturity, during which they wander along the coast from Central America to British Columbia. Northerly movements are generally restricted to warmer seasons of the year, most commonly June through October.
