Hey Wallace, Rack et al.,
The White Pelican that was present for over a year in 1995-96 struck a power 
line over the river in Kingsport, was captured & taken to rehab, where the wing 
had to be amputated.  Later it was sent to a zoo in New Jersey.

> The Kingsport Amrican White Pellican seen often on Netherland Inn Road in
> Sullivan County was 2 Feb 1995 thru at least Mar 1996 and was back and forth
> between Johnson City V.A. pond, Austin Springs (both in Washington County)
