On Wednesday, May 9 I looked for the White-faced Ibis at Wright Marsh without success from 9:00 am to about 3:00 pm. At least three additional parties were looking without success. The north impoundment and both ponds at Wright Marsh were searched in the morning and early afternoon by me and at least one other party and the rest of the impoundments of Killibuck WA were also searched from the RR tracks north of Willow Road and the south impoundment south of Willow Road was searched from Cemetery Road. Water levels were high along the RR tracks due to flooding from then recent rain in the area. The ibis could have been hiding and still present, vastly changed their feeding strategy or left the area. While I was at Wright in the morning, a hellicopter circled the whole Killibuck-Wright Marsh area putting up all of the egrets and herons as well as a flock of 23 Short-billed Dowitchers plus 2 Dunlin and both Yellowlegs species and Solitary Sandpipers. There were no ibis seen in flight.
