This is the first report of the American White Pelican (Pelecanus erythrorhynchos) residing over a three year and three month period at Ensenada de Aripes, Baja California Sur. The pelicans remained in the study area throughout the year. Some non-breeding individuals stay in the region, suggesting that the adults migrate to their nesting areas.
