Brown Pelican Squadron Collection

Barbara Fallenbaum's Original Oil painting of a group of brown pelicans sitting in the water together in V-formation. Pelicans are a large unique bird that lives on shorelines in colonies of thousands. Brown Pelicans have a wingspan of about 6.5 feet, are truly graceful in flight, can be seen soaring just above the water's surface. A group of pelicans will fly in a V-formation, which is where the nick name squadron" came from. I have seen them in our cove floating in that same formation.
