The pelicans were well off shore. There may have been several other pelicans on the pilings, but due to the high winds off the water and poor lighting, I could only definitively identify the birds in flight. I also got great looks at two least terns over the mud flats directly on the other side of MD 261. Later, I saw either the same two birds or another two least terns over the water very close to the beach.
