Pelican was my second guess, too. I've seen pelicans in lace that have similar bills (even though the real thing has that big pouch under its bill) but this bird just seems to say 'loon' to me. There are grebes that look like miniature loons, but they're small and thin. And I've never heard of grebes as symbols. I do believe there's some symbolism to loons, even though I can't remember what. As for ducks, no way. There's no species of duck anywhere in the world that has anywhere near that long a bill.
