[birdky] Re: Pelicans in Ballard county

["Bennett, Mark" <mbennett@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A fisherman friend of mine estimates nearly 400 American White Pelicans at
Linton Bay, just north of the TN line this weekend.  He is normally fairly
reliable on such things.

Also, I have my first Tree Swallow flirting with a nest box yesterday at
home.

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.
