215 American White Pelicans flying over City Park

While driving I-610 east across City Park about an hour ago (4:20 pm), I came alongside a large flock of white pelicans that were strung out into two massive "V" formations on the north side of the interstate.  They were slowly making their way east, alternately flapping and gliding (often such flocks are instead seen circling and drifting in their intended direction- perhaps a time-of-day difference?).

Good birding,

Peter
