More Pelican Sightings!

This picture was taken Saturday, August 14, 2004, at 8:04:16 PM by Mike Dupre.  He has been seeing pelicans around Kentucky and Barkley lake for the last couple of years.  We have actually received numerous emails stating the same thing.  As we researched the birds, we found they do actually pass over our area heading to their breeding grounds.  They tend to land on large bodies of water along the way.

Thanks to all of you who have shared your "pelican" stories with us.  It is funny to hear how everyone felt better to have heard someone else had sighted the same birds and that they were not just "seeing things".
