Hi Tweets,

Relaying for Peter Woods, who observed and photographed a Brown Pelican
(Pelecanus occidentalis), an apparent juvenile, off 2nd Beach in Stanley
Park yesterday about midday.

The bird twice entered outer Burrard Inlet from Georgia Strait (from the
approximate direction of Point Grey, suggesting it may be loitering near
Iona Is.), flew near the entrance to False Creek and reached the western
Stanley Park littoral before being lost to sight.
