Y'all, I just went on a mini deep-dive learning about pelicans, and TIL that when they yawn their spine comes out of their mouth. Also they do this to cool themeselves too. Videos were pretty nuts. Still pictures were just confusing.
Yeah I had to look up closer pics to assure myself the eyes were the small black dots and not the yellow markings. They'd be too large for that skull, it's uncanny.
