I stopped at Fairport Harbor on the way home from work and had no problem finding the Brown Pelican. It was sitting along the west bank of the Grand River a little south of the Coast Guard Station. I'll post a picture later. Here is the problem. Tonight starts the Mardi Gas Festival in Fairport. I was able to get out of there with no problem, but traffic was flowing in for the parade. The festival goes until Sunday. You can still get to the mouth of the river, but you may have to walk a bit. From where the pelican was sitting this evening I do not think you can see it from Headlands.
