The pelicans start their southward migration about the same time that bald eagles are working their way down the Mississippi river valley. It's not unusual to see many of both in backwater pools of the river; pelicans in the water and the eagles in the trees. Once winter is in full force the trees are full of eagles, I sometimes see a hundred or more perched up high as I commute to work over the Arsenal bridge.

I dig birds. Some think it's dorky but I think they are cool.
