I made the drive over to Englewood MetroPark and tagged along with a local Nature Walk to see some of the park.  They showed me the best vantage point, which is the shore off of the southernmost parking area for the disc golf course.  Take first left after the main entrance, then the next left before reaching the boat launch area.  Park at the end and walk the 50 yards west to the shore through the disc golf course. The juvie White Ibis and 3 juvie Little Blue Herons were in a small pool at the far southern end of the drying flood-pool, along with 12 Great Egrets, 1-2 Great Blues, 2 Green Herons, and quite a few geese and wood ducks, along with a dozen Turkey Vultures.  All of these birds were feasting on the fish and invertebrates in this pool, so they'll likely stay until the food runs out, but the pool is shrinking by the hour.  Without rain, it might only last another few days.  Better hurry.
