Rescue Pelican Shows His Excitement After Seeing An Egg Hatch After 6 Years Of Waiting

This past month has been extremely special, magical, and exciting for this one particular pelican named Mr. Percival who lives at Twinnies Pelican and Seabird Rescue in Australia. Turns out, for six years, this gentleman along with his partner has nested and cared for their eggs, hoping for a baby, but none of the eggs have ever hatched. Until now. Well, sort of.

"Mr. Percival has never given up trying to have a baby pelican chick. He sits on his eggs with his partner that shares the incubation and the eggs have never hatched. He has been doing this for 6 years now and we felt so sorry for him as it's so sad when he sees the others around him seeing baby pelicans," reads the post on the Twinnies Pelican and Seabird Rescue Facebook page. "It's so sad when he sees the others around him seeing baby pelicans," shared the sanctuary.
