[nysbirds-l] White-faced Ibis (Yes)...

2014-05-29 Thread Andrew Baksh
The adult White-faced Ibis continues this morning in the same area it was
found yesterday. Re-found with Ann Lazarus, Kathy Drake, Louise Fraza,
Isabel Conte and Edith Goren.

The bird, is currently feeding with Glossy Ibis in the bayside marsh just
after bench 1 before the Osprey platform.
