A pelican must aim for a fish slightly ahead of its actual position due to the time it takes for its beak to reach the water after it dives. Additionally, the refraction of light in water can distort the perceived location of the fish, making it appear at a different point than where it is. By adjusting its aim accordingly, the pelican increases its chances of successfully catching the fish.
The Pelican is the symbol above the motto "we live and die for those we love". It appears on the State of Louisiana certification to practice law. The state motto is "Union, Justice, Confidence"
One hidden treat for gamers is the ability to eat a pelican flying above the water.Eat a mushroom bubble,the power up that shrinks every bigger creature in the water,as the pelican flies overhead. The pelican will also shrink,allowing you to jump out of the water and consume the bird. :)

approximately, but there are variations in the fact that different places have different elevation's therefore raising it above the horizon for longer or slightly shorter periods.
