Any ideas what this is?  We were thinking a pelican.  But were also unsure.


And other charges IanRaven and I found amusing today:

It looks like a sort of spastic emu who just figured out that vulning oneself hurts.

We thought it could have been a drive by or some other form of bird killing. And the rainbow coloring was a bit odd. Did they have emus in Germany? Could something like this pass our Heralds? Oh so many questions.

Could something like this pass SCA heralds? Yes, if you produced a lot of examples of it in period.

Pink pelicans are not unknown in period art. In the Aberdeen Bestiary (see my icon) the Pelicans are pink. They also kill their own young for being really annoying, and then bring them back to life by feeding them their blood. Weird critters, Pelicans.
