Rochester is known for its rather large population of geese, but I spotted a flock of an even more unique bird over the weekend.
I was out with our dog, Asher, for our daily walk in our neighborhood in northwest Rochester Saturday morning when I saw them. It was a flock of large birds, circling overhead. I thought they were geese-- which, as we know here in Rochester-- isn't an odd sight at all.
But these birds looked different. They looked bigger. And, they were flying around in a large circle-like motion, which isn't what I've seen geese here in the Med City do. As it turns out, I'm pretty sure it was actually a flock of pelicans that had somehow ended up here in Rochester.
