As I was leaving the office here in Port Rowan at 4:30 this afternoon, a Plegadis ibis flew directly over my car. It came from the east (Port Rowan) and flew off towards the Big Creek NWA to the southwest. I searched down along the causeway on the off chance that it landed in view but I did not see it again. Given the nasty weather it was flying into (approaching thunderstorms from the west), I don't imagine it flew any further than the Big Creek marshes.
BSC headquarters and the Big Creek NWA can be reached by driving south from the 401 on Highway 59.
