Hi

I also observed the Brown Pelican between 8:30 and 9:00 mostly to the south of Buoy #1, feeding on the U.S. side. In addition there is a report of a Red-throated Loon between the train bridge and the Underwater recovery unit. This location is south of Bowen Road on the Niagara Parkway.

The bird is being viewed now sleeping on a green buoy on the American side.

I'm parked at the end of Bowen Rd in Fort Erie.

Hi

The Brown Pelican continues to be seen in Fort Erie. It spends most of
its time resting on buoys on the U.S. side This morning it crossed into Canadian waters twice between 8:25 and 9:00 am.

A navigation chart can be found on the noaa web site. The chart number is 14832. It shows the Canada/U.S. border and the buoys.

Observed from the Niagara Parkway close to the end of Bowen Toad. There is a pull off on the river side.
