[va-bird] More No. VA White Ibis sightings

[KurtCapt87@xxxxxxx]

VA BIRDers,

I checked through my records and came up with the following information:

6/19/98 Dulles Wetlands, Loudoun Co, Bev Leeuwenberg
7/3/87 Dyke Marsh, Frfx Co, var. obs.
7/17/00(? it may be 99) Airlie, Fauquier Co, Bill Sladen
7/17/89-8/10/89 Chantilly, Frfx Co, var. obs.
7/23/00(? it may be 99) Pohick Cr, Frfx Co, Julie Kutruff (Yes Bart, you are 
on to something!)
ca. 9/1/89 Nokesville, Pr. Wm Co, Ken Bass

My records are admittedly somewhat spotty.  If anyone has additional sighting 
data (or corrections), please send it this way.    Thanks!

As you can see, July comes up as the hot month to find these birds in our 
neck of the woods.  The birds seem to be found most often in out of the way 
locations that are seldom visited by humans.  I would not be surprised if 
this species is a yearly regular visitor (re: rare) to our area!
