They see a lot of young Brown Pelicans ; they see a lot of juvenile birds in general, all of whom tend to hug the coast on their first migration. KWWC also has a thriving feral chicken sideline. Key West Wildlife Center takes mostly birds, but will rescue mammals, marine mammals, and both land and sea turtles as well.

Okay, that choice is something to be expected, but how about this: some seven years ago I was guiding another British couple to a nearby fish farm where I was happy to show them the Great White Pelican – the only one I have ever seen in Serbia! Should I add, for the crow, there was no need to leave the city.

Boat-tailed Grackles were ubiquitous and at any time a Brown Pelican could fly overhead. One massively negative aspect of birding Tybee Island is the sheer volume of feral cats and outdoor cats. The beaches and ocean of Tybee Island had the expected species like Royal Tern , Brown Pelican , and Black Skimmer. I hope not!
