Four Pelicans Find a New Home in St. James's Park Lake
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this charming vintage photograph captured in the 1950s, we witness the arrival of four majestic pelicans to their new residence at St. James's Park lake. These magnificent creatures were a generous gift from the governor of Louisiana, symbolizing a bond between two distant lands. Despite enduring the perils of travel, three out of the four pelicans successfully completed their journey and eagerly awaited their first meal in their newfound home. The fourth pelican unfortunately suffered from travel sickness and required special care indoors until it regained its strength. The names bestowed upon these regal birds reflect both their origins and gender: Rex, Regina, Louis, and Louise. In this particular moment frozen in time, Louis gracefully catches a fish thrown by their devoted keeper while Regina observes with an open beak - perhaps anticipating her turn for a delectable treat. This delightful image not only showcases the beauty and resilience of these avian wonders but also serves as a reminder of how acts of kindness can bridge distances between different corners of our world. As they settle into St. James's Park lake, these pelicans bring joy to all who encounter them - becoming cherished residents within this iconic London landmark.
