[cayugabirds-l] Wildlife Drive Glossy Ibis

2020-05-21 Thread Nicholas Kachala
Robert Buckert and I just observed the Montezuma Glossy Ibis in flight over the Eagle Sculpture Area, heading away from Wildlife Drive due northwest towards Tschache Pool. Not too fast but direct flight. Nick Kachala -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME
