FreeLists / birdky / [birdky] Pelicans in Ballard county

["Scott & Glenda Record" <sgrecord@xxxxxxxx>]

While most of Ballard WMA is underwater there are still good birding 
opportunities around the Mitchell Lake area.  Birds of particular interest 
today include:
American White Pelican  75
Tree swallow  at least 2
Ruddy duck  1
Blue-w & Gr-w teal
Snow geese 150 + (mostly blue phase)
Canada geese
Shoveler
Gadwall
Bald Eagle  1

I saw the Pelicans on Mitchell Lake around 9:30 A.M.  When I came back through 
30 minutes later there were only a dozen or so left and a few circling to the 
north.  They were probably roosting there overnight.  They may not stay in the 
area.
