Birders,

An adult Caspian Tern fished and loafed (no miracles, though) on and
around a tiny island just offshore from the Lake Hasty swim beach in the
late morning on August 26th.

The subadult white morph Reddish Egret has remained at private Verhoeff
Reservoir since it moved there from Lake Hasty on August 22nd, and was
still present today. It may be visible from US 50, just east of Bent
County Road 26.5, but before you get to the lone tree on the south side
of the highway. This lake is on private property, and trespassing is not
allowed. If you want more information, you can email me. I'll help you
try to see the bird.
