Greg Miller left word on our home answering machine saying he would be off MDOsprey for several days, but asking if we could post that he was (as he spoke) looking at the American White Pelican just north of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge at Jones Point in Maryland waters, from 6:30 to 6:45 p.m. on Thursday, August 19. He said it was on hydrilla by the big snag. Jane Kostenko jkostenko@somd.lib.md.us California, Maryland Yesterday is history; tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why they call it the PRESENT.
