Pelecanus onocrotalus (juvenile)
It is almost a pity that this bird changes his colours as he becomes adult.

Thank you Sophie and Sayten! @ Sophie: That is precisely what I meant when I said that it is a pity that this bird changes his colours as he becomes adult. The close up shows the beautiful shades of brown in his feathers.
Beautiful series!
