Anaho Island is a designated wildlife refuge and access
is closed to visitors. It is a primary breeding site for
the American White Pelican. These birds can be seen gliding
along the shores in the summer and fishing the waters.
They have wing spans up to 9 feet and can extend up to
5 feet in length. The US Fish & Wildlife Service has
a good website with a slide show.
