Pelicans gather around fishermen, hoping to feast on leftover fish from the day's catch in Bandirma district of Balikesir on January 20, 2025. Bird Lake, located in Bandirma district of Balikesir, serves as a vital ecosystem supporting diverse bird species, aquatic plants, fish populations, and various reptiles. This unique habitat is particularly important for piscivorous birds. During winter months, when fish activity decreases, pelicans are frequently observed along the lake's shoreline, strategically positioning themselves near areas where they wait for the fishermen to return from the hunt (Photo by Alper Tuydes/Anadolu via Getty Images)
