Examples from texts

Far ahead, a pelican saw a fish, folded its wings, and dropped like a dive-bomber.
Далеко впереди пеликан заметил рыбу, сложил крылья и спикировал, как штурмовик.

Pelicans floated on the swells while seagulls and a lone eagle wheeled above them.
Над волнами кружили пеликаны, а высоко в небе – одинокий орел.
