A single White-faced Ibis overhead, seen from Dodson Road in Grant County
at the Winchester Wasteway crossing, flying toward the southeast. This was
in the company of Tom Schooley and a few other birders, on the return trip
from the O'Sullivan Dam campground, on Sunday, May 15, 1989. This is the
only ibis I have seen in the state.
