At 2:15, Glossy was munching on the grass between the road and the
Channel, just south of the barrier by the golf course parking lot.

Subject: [MDOSPREY] Hains Point 'Glossy' Ibis, 8/18


The immature ibis was at Hains Point at noon today, on the sidewalk
bordering the Washington Channel, immediately opposite the 
clubhouse.  It moved around quite a bit and foraged as I watched. Other
birds included Ring-billed and Laughing Gulls on the links of the
northern part of the course, two Double-crested Cormorants in the
channel, and a Forster's Tern fishing in the channel.
