Rose and I drove the auto route before lunch and had good luck on the
continuing birds. As reported today by others, the Avocet and Ibis
were in Eaton. This time it was the young Ibis. The EARED GREBE was
located in the main pool, not at the start of the drive, but at the
beginning of the second major opening onto the main pool, where it is
deeper and cleaner (the first opening is shallower). There was also
a GREATER YELLOWLEGS at Eaton.
The biggest surprise was a fly-by AMERICAN BITTERN near the start of
the auto route. It was flying south, between the roadside water
control channel and the near edge of the main pool. A photographer
behind us said that he also saw the bird as it landed, so it may be find-able.
