Pelicans Swimming And Feeding In A Large Body Of Water — Clip Details

Shot on 8mm film in 1966, this vintage home movie captures a flock of pelicans swimming and feeding in a large body of water in Puerto Rico. The footage shows the birds with their long beaks and distinctive pouches, some diving and splashing while others float calmly. The scene has a strong blue color cast typical of aged film, with visible grain and dark borders framing the action. The water ripples around the birds as they move, creating a natural, candid wildlife moment from a classic era of home filmmaking.
