Observation details
Picked this bird out of the ibis flock on the north side of Township Road, in the first flooded field just east of Hwy 97. I was looking specifically for Glossy Ibis, and this bird stuck out with its bluish-gray facial skin. Great scope views at close range in the sunshine. This bird had darker legs than the surrounding White-faced, a seemingly dark eye (though it shows reddish in some photos), and lacked any of the white border on the face. Other birders have seen the photos and agree on the ID, and it will be submitted to the OBRC. This would be the eighth accepted Oregon record, and the first for Klamath County (the first seven records have all been from Harney County).
