Hello,
This morning (7:15) I was unable to locate the brown pelican either in Iowa 
or Minn, however there was an immature bald eagle perched on a branch on the 
island and this probably spooked it.  I also spoke with Linda Fries who 
lives on Little Spirit Lake and she said it was on the island at daybreak 
and then when she checked later it was gone. She said it was also there last 
night.
I did not see the black-headed gull either. This morning there was no wind 
with flat calm conditions.
