Kim and Warren report that the Glossy Ibis is still in the same spot as the
last couple of days. It must roost off the flooded field but is returning
to the same spot to spend the day. Hopefully it will continue to feed in
this same field today, a couple of miles west of Aitkin on CR 15, the
Cedarbrook road. From 210/169 in Aitkin, go north from the stoplight 2
blocks and turn west on 4th St NW. There is a large flooded, black muddy
field on the right where the bird is being seen, it also flies to the
adjacent grassy flooded field to the west. Also, the Hudsonian Godwit has
been seen this morning in the flooded field on the left side of the road
just past the bridge on CR 15, a couple of miles west of the Ibis.
