The Limpkin is still present this morning. It was audible and calling constantly when I arrived at the parking lot, and could be heard constantly for the entire 13 minute walk to the dock. The bird was visible as a brown blob in the morning fog, and kept calling steadily until 5:15 when it flew to the right and into the cattails at 5:15, briefly seen fairly clearly while in flight. Since then it has only sporadically called, perhaps feeding. Congratulations Ezra on an amazing find!
