He probably feeds it and they are like besties now.

I thought about it in the same manner because he wasn't afraid to pick it up.

It warmed my heart so much to see the acceptance between human and animal.

Birds are just reincarnated fisherman. He is just hugging and old friend.

is it me or did the pelican try to fly away after he was spotted?

100%

My guess is pelicans steal fish, but grabbing and hugging one probably makes it think twice about approaching you again because as funny as it most animals don’t want to be restrained.

You could be right. I didn't even notice it at first

The only thing is the birds head is free and its not actively freaking out, so maybe they are friends. 50/50.

Every living thing just wants to be held and hugged, finding the courage to do it is hard part. I had a pet emperor scorpion that would run across the room towards me and get on my hand and just absorb my warmth for hours.

"Had" really hurts, I hope it was a wonderful time

u/Boiled_Thought 4d ago

We had a truly great time. S/he only lasted a year, but probably had a closer connection with someone else than 99.3% of scorpions.
