A large, white pelican is the central subject of the image, depicted resting on dry, brown earth. Its pristine white feathers are prominent, with some yellowish-cream plumage visible on its back and neck. The pelican's most striking feature is its long, textured bill, which shows intricate patterns of light pink, orange, and off-white, culminating in a vibrant orange-red tip. Its dark eyes gaze directly towards the viewer. The pelican is positioned beside a body of water that has a noticeable green tint, suggesting the presence of algae or reflections from foliage. The ground around the pelican is barren dirt, scattered with small pebbles and white feathers. In the background, to the left, a rustic, weathered wooden structure with horizontal planks stands, possibly serving as a shelter or part of an animal enclosure. Further back, near this structure and the water, another bird, appearing to be a white stork or a similar large waterfowl with some black markings, is visible. Sparse green tree branches with fresh leaves frame the upper left side of the image. A chain-link fence is present in the mid-ground on the left, to which a white informational sign with green text is attached. Though the text is largely illegible, the partial visibility of "BG" suggests content in Bulgarian. The scene portrays a daytime setting, likely within a zoo or wildlife park, characterized by a calm and observational atmosphere. The location cues, including the potential Bulgarian text, align with the provided context of Stara Zagora, Bulgaria.
