We have been waiting for the white pelicans to show up on the Columbia River outside of Astoria and they finally have! We spotted 7 in the water (surrounded by many other waterfowl too small to identify with just binoculars) from a wide shoulder along Hwy 30, about 6 miles east of Astoria and about a mile west of the Twilight Creek Eagle Sanctuary (46.1740655, -123.7158823). Apparently, this is the same location they are spotted in nearly every year while they are migrating in the spring. April and Chris LaumanAstoria, Oregon
