Hey all -

A couple pics of the Plegadis ibis discovered Emil Bacik are up at:

Nice looks at this bird in the bright afternoon rays showed a clearly pink legs, 
facial skin, reddish eye, and the distinct facial pattern of an ad. WHITE-FACED 
IBIS.  A bit disconcerting was grayish bill color (though I imagine this 
characteristic can be a bit more variable than others), and the fact that a 
facial pattern/legs are a shade on the dull side for a bird in breeding 
plumage.  Nice find, Mo!

Also at Lorain - single Willet and Short-billed Dowitcher.

Good birding -
