hi all ... Gene and I went out to Bonneville Dam to see the Brown Pelican reported yesterday by Gary Fredericks (and today by Wilson Cady, who we ran into) ... at first the bird was snoozing on the cement structure between the North Powerhouse and the Dam ... eventually he went fishing (after you left Wilson) ... we enjoyed watching him floating downstream in the fast water and then flying back upstream and floating down again ... it didn't appear he was eating much but we did see him dive a couple of times and Gene saw him actually swallow something once ...
