I'm forwarding this from the Virginia listserve because it sounds like the bird was over DC waters.  Something to watch for.

I was driving on GW Parkway around 3 today and just south of Memorial Bridge I watched a large bird fly close to the water from DC to the Virginia shore.  I did not see it land but as I got a little closer while in flight I am 95% sure it was a Pelican.  I'm not big on tracking where birds have and have not been seen but in all my years around here I have never seen one.  Any thoughts?
