Continuing adult at this location since 8/15/2020. Likely the same bird that was recently seen at a small pond just south of Perris Airport, about 10 miles to the north east. Today, the bird was seen at the large back basin pond foraging with numerous Great/Snowy Egrets, and later it was standing in shallow water at the south west part of the lake, just west of levee mile marker 3. Large white bird with black primary feathers and black tip of tail. Featherless grayish head and large bill. Dark stripe across head. Dark legs with yellowish feet. Photos to follow.
