The Pelicans L.e.b. Lladro Figurine

Long has it been held in folklore that the pelican is the most affectionate of all birds with its mate and its young. Indeed, the belief goes back a long way, stretching to the myth that they are so devoted to their offspring that they will feed them with their own blood. Artists of this Lladró creation needed no more inspiration than the incredible love and dedication suggested by this extraordinary legend.
