Subject: [Tweeters] Brown Pelican and lots of wet birds at Semiahmoo
Hi Tweeters

Despite the wet and windy conditions, there was plenty of bird activity
today at Semiahmoo. The highlight was a juvenile Brown Pelican doing a
flyby; it has been in the area since at least midday Monday.

I have compiled a video featuring the pelican, along with several other
sightings:

- A Cormorant attempting to swallow a fish that was too large
- A Horned Grebe in breeding plumage
- A Belted Kingfisher shaking off the rain
- A very wet juvenile Bald Eagle
- Western Grebes

Also of note were the numerous (75) Common Mergansers on the beach along
Semiahmoo Bay & lots of Bonaparte's Gulls .

Cheers
