Vagrant species in the Western Cape
PBP has small black blotch in front of the eye, pinkish mandibular pouch (not yellow as GWP) and smaller, whiter area of facial skin. In flight much less contrast between underwing coverts and dark grey flight feathers are visible, with grey upper wing coverts (not white) and dark grey primaries (not black). Tail grey, not white.
An image showing both Pelican species is included for comparison.
