Here are several bird sightings my father reported to me.

Please report that a fisherman familiar with Brown Pelican from the NC coast
reported seeing a Brown Pelican Tuesday March 18th on the Roanoke River at
the Rich Square-Scotland Neck bridge on US 258. The bird took a shad from a
fisherman's line (which unhooked); the fishermen then threw things at the
bird which flew off. (Legally Northampton County, actually on border.)
And American Egrets (3+) are back at Bellamy's Lake in Halifax County (as of
March 17, Monday), visible from I-95 northbound.
