Sunday Pelicans and Eared Grebe

.
May 15 to Mich-Chat:
.
At 10:00 am there were about a dozen American White Pelicans in the Grand River on the east side of the draw bridge in Grand Haven.  I viewed them from Ferry Park which is on the ne corner of US-31 and W. Savidge St.  The park has a walk that goes under W. Savidge St. so that the river can be viewed.

At 10:30 there was an Eared Grebe on the west side of the east lagoon at the Muskegon Wastewater facility.  The bird was near the isthmus between the two lagoons and near the gull nesting area. 
.

I did not see either of the two ibis previously reported in Muskegon.

Good Birding,
Mike Overway

Note:  I know of only one Ibis at Muskegon (the White-faced at Wastewater Saturday evening) and have heard nothing since then about that one.  - Ric
