I took this in Aruba before kids in 2016. Nothing special gear wise, thanks especially to a large bird that wasn’t phased by me walking around near it…

P.S. - I am not a bird guy and truly hope this is a pelican 🫠
That’s a nice pelican!
Is it scratching an itch or just looking under its wing? ;P
The boring answer was: it was preening. But for internet points let’s go with scratching an itch!
Thanks, that’s a great wiki page!! I should know more about preening. I was not so successfully trying to make a big beak joke :P
