Pelicans in December....

Beautiful weather today, which may account for the early return of some of the Pelicans. We saw a small group of around 20, not close to the breeding site but a little further out on the lake. They may be scouts just coming to check things out or they could be stopping off to refuel before heading further North. Either way they were a welcome sight. Close by we also saw 30 or so Egrets. There are a couple of Peli pics down this page but first you will see Mike accompanied by Peggy and our new dog Vladi strolling along the path.
