As the day began to warm today the White Pelicans have been lifting off of nearby Pigs Eye Lake and moving out. Groups of 50-100+ have been flying off all morning starting about 8:30 or so. I'm guessing I have seen close to a thousand or more this morning and I haven't been watching all that closely. I just have happened to notice them out of my office window. Unfortunately, they frown on paying me to bird all morning instead of my real job!
This has all been taking place along the Mississippi River just downriver from downtown St. Paul, at the Metro Sewage Treatment Plant (old Pig's Eye). It has been quite a sight.
