Thanks to Susan Williams comment to my earlier post, I was alerted to Am. White Pelicans at Nygren.  I went out there after work today and counted 45.  While there, I met Martin Kehoe, who assisted in a controlled burn on another part of the property.  He told me that Greg Keilbach counted “around 100″ scattered through the ponds in the lower levels of the preserve.  Most of the pelicans I saw flew up from the area of the  big oxbow that is below the hill on which the barn sits.  Also visible from the overlook was a pair of Sandhill Cranes, a Harrier, about 8 GWTeal, a similar number of N. Shovelers, two pairs of Wood Ducks, a raft of Coots, several TVs, and a distant immature Bald Eagle.
