My apologies for the abbreviated post earlier, but I was trying to thumb the message and keep an eye on the White-faced Ibis at the same time (cue gender stereotypes in regards to multitasking now...).
After the initial 5 minute viewing the bird flew north east and I did not see it again putting in a two hour vigil. Some other birds of note were observed on the falling tide. A photo of the White-faced Ibis can be seen in the Ebird report or on Flickr at the following links. http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S18599724 https://www.flickr.com/photos/103866258@N08/14290808662/ 2 Gull-billed Tern hunting in the eastern corner of the south marsh. Tri-colored Heron near the cut. Shorebird viewing was nice at the cut and on terrapin point with Red Knot, Short-billed Dowitcher, Dunlin, Ruddy Turnstone, Semipalmated Sandpiper, Least Sandpiper, Black-bellied Plover and Spotted Sandpiper represented.
