📍 St James’s Park @theroyalparks
Pelicans were first introduced to the park in 1664 as a gift from the Russian Ambassador, over 40 pelicans have since called the park home.
There are currently six pelicans living in St James's, and they can often be found basking on their favourite rocks in the middle of the lake.
If you do spot them, make sure to give them some room as they are still wild animals at the end of the day.
