Every 13 minutes 28 seconds at base weight, the Pelican takes a random unfavorited non-Summer fruit from your garden, turns it into a Summer-type fruit of the same rarity, and gives it to you.
It's useful for Summer-type quests and for pets that only work with Summer fruit, such as the Newt. The wiki notes a bug that once let it hand out an unreleased fruit.
