Reddish Egret in Bent County

[DUANE NELSON]

Birders, 

I found a 2nd-year dark morph Reddish Egret at Blue Lake (Adobe Creek Reservoir) in Bent County today. It was 1/2 mile north of the outlet gate structure on the west side of the outlet canal. Access is via Bent County Road UU, which heads west from Bent County Road 10. I think it's best to park below the dam, just past the cattle guard on the west side of the dam.
