As mentioned earlier, a flock of Brown Pelicans are enjoying the fine fishing and mild weather of this November. I counted 14 yesterday and got a lucky shot of a tagged individual in flight! As a big admirer of pelicans I am delighted to observe them here on a daily basis over the last few weeks, rather than be obliged to migrate to warmer climes. A harbinger of a mild winter?

I reported a blue-banded specimen to: http://www.bird-rescue.org/contact/found-a-bird/report-blue-banded-pelicans.aspx

They are occupying the eastern-most point of Great Race and it is possible you can view them by going to : http://racerocks.com/racerock/video1.htm   The camera can be controlled by your computer!
