Who Has the Longest Wingspan

Who Has the Longest Wingspan – well the longest wingspan of all birds goes to the Albatross, a wing span of 12 feet. But they fly over the southern oceans and breed on islands just to the north of the Antarctic Circle. So it is a bird I will probably never see.

So lets look at the birds that I have photographed here in the states. My favorite large bird of all is the White Pelican. It’s wingspan comes in at – drum roll please –

7.5 feet to 11.8 feet

American Eagle 5.5 feet to 8 feet wing span

The Brown Pelican is – 6 to 7 foot span

Great Blue Heron 5.5 to 6.5 feet

Canada Goose 4 to 5 foot span

Wild Turkey has 5 foot span

Great Egret – 4.5 foot wing span
