I stopped by Glacier Ridge this afternoon at around 3:30 PM, and the Sora was still there.
Today it was on the other side of the boardwalk across the water, n the side towards the
parking lot, foraging along the cattails at the edge of the water.

I got some photos of it from a fair distance, then it darted into the cattails and I
didn't see it for 10-15 minutes. It emerged again, and started working towards the me and
the boardwalk. I lost it in the heavy growth about 20 feet from the boardwalk, and never
saw it again.

There was a mother Mallard and two small ducklings, also working their way toward me and
providing some nice "photo ops".
