PELICANS ON THE SALTON

The Salton Sea gets smaller each year it seems. There have been problems with the rerouting the Colorado River for irrigation purposes causing the water level to diminish, therefore, the salt, and pollution from farm chemicals are not being diluted. The "Sea" has a lot of tilapia, and used to have corvina, but many have died and washed on to the shoreline. The smell has been a little pungent in the past but seemed much better this year. The pelicans are still here in large number
