a pelican swimming in a body of water

The great white pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus) also known as the eastern white pelican, rosy pelican or white pelican, is a bird in the pelican family. Lake Naivasha is a freshwater lake in Kenya, outside the town of Naivasha in Nakuru County, which lies north west of Nairobi. It is part of the Great Rift Valley. The name derives from the local Maasai name Nai'posha, meaning "rough water" because of the sudden storms which can arise.
