I do not know what time the bird left Clear Creek, but I had a hunch that it likely was heading west into the light SW wind. At 1:05 p.m. I found the bird soaring low over the north end of Rondeau Park and Rondeau townsite, slowly heading east. I saw the bird from the Shrewsbury dock, via scoping the area. I had just come from the Rondeau entrance area and had not seen it, but immediately (obviously) I went there again after seeing the bird, but still could not relocate it. However, the bird must have turned around since it was at about 2:00 p.m. that the bird was found sitting in a tree at Rondeau South Beach.
Thus the bird has been sitting in the same poplar at South Beach from 2:00 to at least 6:30 p.m. If the bird roosts in the area, then it should be seeable sometime tomorrow morning when it takes its first flight. Also note that the bird was seen by birders at Clear Creek last night, but for some strange reason the word was not put out.
