[Ontbirds] Brown Pelican - Wheatley Harbour, yes

2013-08-22 Thread Sarah . Rupert
Hi All

I've had a few people asking if the bird has been seen today and I'm happy 
to report that I got a text around 11 am to let me know the bird is 
present.

If you arrive and you don't see it right away, be patient and wait a bit - 
the bird sometimes moves to the opposite side of the break wall.  That 
side of the break wall is visible from Detroit Ave in Wheatley.

good luck and good birding

Sarah

[Ontbirds] Brown Pelican - Wheatley Harbour, Yes

2013-08-20 Thread Sarah Rupert
Hi All

I was able to make it out to Wheatley Harbour after work and was lucky enough 
to get to see the pelican. It was sitting on the rock break wall as previously 
reported by Alan Wormington.  The bird stayed in the same location until 7 pm 
when it took off and flew out into the lake.  It had not returned by 7:45 pm 
when I left.  Just got a text message from Pete Read and the bird has returned 
and will likely roost there for the night. Pete plans to stay until dark and 
will post another update.


Best viewing was from the pier located at the south end of Kent County rd 1.
Good birding!
