Over the past 20+ years many banded pelicans
have been treated at the Pelican Harbor Seabird Station here in Miami. All that I have heard reports on have been from North and South Carolina. You need to check with the wildlife rescue groups in the Florida Keys and on Sanibel Island. I will try to post something on Florida Birds.
