Canoeing on Woods Reservoir we had about the same species as previously reported by Scott Somershoe at the Little Elder Island heronry. The 3 immature white ibis flew in directly and disappeared into the vegitation without a trace. We also saw 15+ Bank swallows with several Norther rough-winged swallows on a power line at the boat ramp.
