I am in Patea, arrived river mouth at 9 am to be greeted by two pelicans taking flight, seen at very close range. By the time I parked and got my camera out they were high up so got some distant flight shots. These two birds headed south - maybe for Foxton! Where the other six birds went I don' t know. I met up with the Daily News and he showed me where the 8 birds were seen last night.! He has a number of photos as does another lady I met who arrived earlier this morning. She is going to send me some. Will post some photos later. So lets keep a watch on the estuaries around here. Paul Gibson
