Odense Zoo - Pelican House

The pelican house inside the walkthrough Kiwara African Aviary in Odense Zoo, Denmark. A very good and light indoor environment for the pink-backed pelican living there with several sleeping/nesting areas and a decent-sized pool.

The walkthrough African Aviary is the first phase of the Kiwara savannah project in Odense Zoo and opened in October 2009. The aviary is a 100 meters long (300 ft.), 35 meters wide (115 ft.) and 16 meters tall (53 ft.) creating a total space of 56.000 cubic meters (1.830.000 cubic ft.), thus being one of the biggest in Northern Europe.

I have never seen a pelican-indoor, where they can sit that high for nesting. Looks good!
