Brown Pelican seen flying North near Coates, MN.  West side of Hwy 52 at Dakota CR 46 at about 10:30am.  I assume this is the Red Wing bird.  Lost sight of the bird North of CR 46.

Marj and I were going down to Red Wing to try to see the Brown Pelican.  Marj pointed out a farmer in the field just to the West of Hwy 52.  When I looked at the farmer, I also saw a large bird flying North.  It looked like a Brown Pelican.  We turned around and refound the bird in flight still going North.  Marj pulled onto CR 46 and I jumped out with my camera.  The bird flew right over the car and continued going North.  I got one (poor) picture of the bird as it went away.  We tried to follow, but we lost the bird.

Who knows where it will be next.
