I finally got down to the lakefront today at 3:45pm and saw the pelican Jen has been reporting (http://www.flickr.com/photos/85567104@N05/). The two pictures of the bird preening and standing were from the edge of the marina at Wendy Park, looking NE. The picture of the bird resting was taken from the Old Coastguard Station. It's a long way from either spot for a 400mm lens on a windy day! Sorry about the quality but at least I have pics for my eBird entry tonight! Hope everyone gets down there to see it!
