Fig 3 This baby pelican seems to say to us, “See, I can swim.” Baby pelicans in the colony are approximately eight weeks old but already big and out of the nests. The babies can walk and swim, but can’t fly. Note that baby pelicans start to fledge at around 10 weeks. The pic was shot at a pelican colony in west Minnesota, July 12, 2008.
このペリカンの赤ちゃんは、次のように言っているように見えます：“わかった、僕、泳げるよ。” コロニーのペリカンの赤ちゃんは、生まれてから、およそ8週間ですが、すでに、大きく、巣から出ていました。赤ちゃんたちは、歩いたり、泳ぐことは出来ますが、まだ、飛ぶことは出来ません。ノート：ペリカンの赤ちゃんは、生後、およそ10週間で、飛ぶことが出来るようになります。
