Pelican’s Landing

I pity the poor pelican!
His beak can hold more than his belly can!



Edit: In interest of finding the proper author to cite for my little childhood-memorized poem, since we are so thorough here, I googled around. I found that I have been misquoting this poem my whole life!

“A wonderful bird is the Pelican.

His beak can hold more than his belly can.

He can hold in his beak

Enough food for a week!

But I'll be darned if I know how the hellican?”


― Dixon Lanier Merritt

(I am reliably informed by the collective knowledge of the internet that this is actually true: the pelican’s stomach can hold up to a gallon, whereas its bill can hold up to three gallons.)
