The Ruddy Shelduck was still present at 3:40 pm at the location described earlier by Steve. Of course, this bird is almost certainly and escaped duck. I don't believe there are any accepted records of this bird in North America. During my visit I also observed three immature Bald Eagles soaring overhead.
