Did some birding at Mitchell Lake Audubon Center. Met a group of 8 from Birds
Unlimited of Kerrville,TX-- Birded with them for a while. Very nice people as
it most always seems with "birders". They were there in time to see the lift
off of about 250 White Pelicans against a beautiful blue sky. They formed one
large swirl and floated away. The group was thrilled.
