[cobirds] white ibis, Riverbend Ponds, Fort Collins

Last Tuesday, Dilka Murtazina found and photographed a white ibis at Riverbend Ponds in Fort Collins. To my knowledge, no one else was able to get on this bird in spite of diligent searching until this morning, when Mike and Libby Edwards relocated the bird in the same spot Dilka had originally found it. It was still present just after 2PM today, at the following location:
https://www.google.com/maps/place/40%C2%B034'21.4%22N+105%C2%B001'45.2%22W/@40.572611,-105.029212,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x7b949191bab8b42!8m2!3d40.572611!4d-105.029212

The map will make it look as if the site is in the northwest lobe of one giant pond, but the water is now shallow enough to make the site a separate pond.

Riverbend Ponds has three parking areas: north parking area off Timberline Road, south parking area off Prospect Road, and northeast parking area off Cherly Street. Prospect might be the most convenient. From there, head north and west until the river stops you, and turn north. Hope it sticks around!
