MIAMI - Members of the Coast Guard, National Park Service, and staff from Pelican Harbor Seabird Station in Miami, unload 23 crates with 45 brown pelican chicks Saturday, July 10, 2010, at Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport, Fort Lauderdale, Fla. The pelicans, ranging in age from 5-to-10 weeks old, had been impacted in the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill and previously cared for at Fort Jackson Bird Rehabilitation Center in Buras, La. The chicks were transported to Pelican Harbor Seabird Station in Miami where they will remain until they can fly and be released into the wild.
