Brown Pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis)
Seen in Connecticut only as a very rare vagrant the Brown Pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis) is a massive waterbird of a different sort. Amazingly one could have seen the species three years in a row in the Stratford/Milford area with an entirely random occurrence of a bird in August 2010, a sighting after Hurricane Irene in 2011, and another after Superstorm Sandy in 2012.
