Pelecanus crispus
Mostly white plumage. The "bag"under the bill is yellow. Pink circular featherless area around eyes.
We had stopped for a cup of tea and I just wandered off a little when I came across a small water body full of aquatic birds of all kinds...peacefully foraging. I could not approach very close as the land sloped down and was an open toilet area from the smell...so maxed the zoom.
Have cropped other birds out of the picture. This is the second pelican species I have spotted in India, in the wild.
