 Pelecanus erythrorhynchos (American White Pelican). | Sorry ... a terrible iPhone photo. Those pelicans were close to our dock when I first saw them, but had sailed to the other side of the little lake when I finally arrived to take a picture. This was my first sighting of them here and seemingly they are uncommon in Tallahassee as noted in a recent article in our local newpaper. I hope that they'll be back soon.
