Good Morning! All four white-faced ibis were still present on Upper Roadside Pool along Sherburne CR 16 this morning. Same spot they've been since last Friday. Because they are visible from the county road, please DO NOT walk behind the refuge gate mentioned earlier as access to Carpenter Pool. This is a closed area, and not open to the public during sanctuary time.
There are two pine warblers foraging in the grass outside our office this morning. Blue-gray gnatcatchers arrived on the wildlife drive - this morning was the first time I've seen them. Warbler migration is still good - 14 species this morning, and many of them are foraging near the ground or edges of marshes, because of wind, cold, and insects available near water. Perfect viewing!
