(At one point I thought that I had 28 Ibis but I may have counted a male CINNAMON TEAL that was in the grass.) Frank and I thoroughly checked over the flock (hoping for a Glossy Ibis) but only came up with one or two birds that were not in complete alternate plumage (but did have red eyes and legs). Earlier we had the YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT just beyond the southeast corner of the ponds, two BOBCAT (on two different dikes, some distance apart and at the nearly the same time), an AMERICAN BITTERN (on the eastern edge of the second pond directly south of the Sewage Treatment Plant, a GREATER YELLOWLEGS and a LESSER YELLOWLEGS (both fairly close together for a nice size comparison but dirty legs caused some consternation). Our first stop this morning was at the Coyote Creek Field Station where try as we might we were unable to find a Black-chinned Hummingbird (only 3 or 4 ANNA'S were seen while another Hummer was promising but was not well seen and did not return to the perch where we first saw it).
