After reviewing the photos (and several inputs) I believe it was an immature
Yellow-crowned Night-heron that was seen on the walk around Knox-Marsellus
Sunday with Dave Nutter. It was located in a small pool along the north end of
the dike that runs between Puddler’s & Knox-Marsellus. Photos

There's a long-term group of around 20 or so Cedar Waxwings in the trees to the
right of the Beebe Lake dam. They've been there most of the time for a few
weeks. You can get a great view from the pedestrian bridge. This is a pretty
sure bet to see one of our prettiest birds.
