A pelican I shot at the zoo at Amnéville. It looks like a spot-billed pelican to me, can anyone confirm?

very nice regardless of type

since you were there you have the best chance of iding the bird

Spot-billed Pelican - Pictures and facts - Birds @ thewebsiteofeverything.com

I first thought an immature Great White Pelican

but being at a zoo

that opens up the door wide

can you see what the zoo lists for pelicans ?
