[va-bird] White Pelican observations

All,
   
  Just an observation or two regarding the White Pelican at Accotink: I had 
checked for it at sunrise this AM from Pohick Regional Park unsuccessfully, and 
then I moved over to the Ft Belvoir side to search immediately after.  The bird 
was nowhere to be found despite thorough searching.  I know the bird was 
checked for during late morning as well without success.  I had asked Kurt to 
give me a call if he found the bird today, and when he did I went back and 
found the bird at about 4:30 (a year bird and all  :-P  ).  I understand that 
Bill McGovern also had the bird later in the afternoon.  
   
  I am wondering if the bird has established a sort of a pattern where it only 
shows up in Accotink later in the day (presently the time of low tide), 
favoring another nearby place with shallower water at other times.  If anybody 
ends up finding the bird elsewhere, please post or let me know to satisfy my 
curiosity.  It may be in some water near you!
   
  Thanks!
