The American White Pelican was present at the islands just off Eastport Drive from 7:45 to just after 9:00 this morning. It was on the third island out from the Centre ( large one with trees) on the Burlington side of the Canada Centre for Inland Waters. It was sitting at the end of the island closest to the Centre. It was viaible from either the side of Eastport or just inside the Centre grounds. Just about 9:00 AM, it flew towards the Burlington Bay end of the Lift Bridge. As it flew, it looked like it was going to land on the water well before the Lift Bridge but it wasn't on the water when I got over there. Rob Buchanan
