Diving-petrel http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelecanoididae "There are four very similar species all in the family Pelecanoididae and genus Pelecanoides Lacépède, 1799, distinguished only by small differences in the coloration of their plumage and their bill construction" Excellent.

Pelicaniformes (Pelicans, cormorants and allies)

Great White Pelican http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_White_Pelican Ought to give players a fright, if the game window is too narrow to display "pelican" and simply shows a "Great White" hanging out in a pond

Pink-backed Pelican http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink-backed_Pelican Chosen to add a bit of colour
