I am currently viewing an American White Pelican (AMPE) on the East Pond at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge. It is on the Raunt preening and could be seen from Big John’s Overlook.
I will refrain from pushing up north on the Pond so as not to push the AMPE from its current location. If you do try from Big John’s, I suggest you remain quiet and stealthily approach the overlook otherwise it will spook.
