To: Bryan Stevens Wow! Good eye and good report, Bryan. That is the first summer season record I am aware of for the American White Pelican in the five-county Northeast Tennessee area. And I know of none for Southwest Virginia or Western North Caorlina. Maybe someone else can jump in here and help. Have they had one at Rankin Bottoms during the summer ? Was that bird flying over the Cheorkee National Forest? Let's go birding.....
