| 4 | 83:99 | 2011-05-09 | Preston Township | Fillmore | (record #2011-016, vote 7–0, photographed). | Accepted | |||
| 5 | 85:99 | 2013-04-24 | County Road 4, Lancaster | Kittson | (record #2013-003, vote 7–0). Adult. First county record. An excellent photograph indisputably confirms the identification. No evidence of hybridization. | Accepted | |||

| 6 | 85:99 | 2013-04-26 | 2013-04-27 | Houston | (record #2013-004, vote 6–1). Adult, photographed. First county record. The photographs alone were inconclusive. Written documentation by one observer augmented the identification. It is regrettable that none of the other observers provided any documentation which might have made the ultimate identification more straightforward. | Accepted | |||
| 7 | 87:4 | 2013-04-29 | south access, Swan Lake | Nicollet | (record #2013-074, vote 6–1). Adult, photographed. Eighth state and eighth spring record. One dissenting member thought that while the photo was suggestive, it was not clear enough to make a positive identification and that it could be just a delayed molt White-faced Ibis. | Accepted | |||
| 8 | 85:99 | 2013-04-30 | Silver Creek Reservoir | Olmsted | (record #2013006, vote 7–0). Adult, photographed. First county record. The report makes a disclaimer that part of the written report in the Request for Documentation was cut and pasted from another report of a different Glossy Ibis observed on an earlier date in another county. This practice is strongly discouraged, but there was enough independent evidence to permit acceptance of the record. | Accepted | |||
