I had the pleasure of adding another bird to the Yard list at my Mothers in Cottonwood, Lyon county, this makes 231. I had just filled the bird feeders at my Mothers place at 7:45 this morning when I was surprised to have an Ibis fly by and fly to Sham Lake about 1/2 miles east of Cottonwood. I quickly drove down to Sham and was able to get a good binocular look and a short Scope look at the bird. Unfortunately a better look still only showed a dark Ibis. It appeared to be an adult bird with glossy plumage but the fact I could not see any white on the face still would not preclude a White-faced Ibis. After just a few minutes it again took flight and headed southeast and I was not able to follow it. -------------------------------1066450061 Content-Type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <HTML><HEAD> <META charset=3DUTF-8 http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; charse= t=3Dutf-8"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2800.1226" name=3DGENERATOR></HEAD> <BODY style=3D"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fffff= f">I had the pleasure of adding another bird to the Yard list at my Mothers=20= in Cottonwood, Lyon county, this makes 231.
