The last few days and articles have been Brown Pelicans for the most part.
The nice thing about the Lowcountry is you can go a little into the marshes and you now have the White Pelicans. Much bigger than the Browns. These birds spend the winter here.

Above is part of a flock that has been in the rice fields for a few weeks. The number of birds varies and can be as little as a few dozen up to 200. The very large flocks make a point of staying off in the hard to reach locations.
