[cobirds] Reddish Egret update

This information is from David Charter, after the Reddish Egret flew west from Lake Cheraw this morning.

"There actually is an isolated pond on the west side of the highway 109.  It probably went down in there, but I can't see it from the road.   The pond can be seen a little bit from highway 266 as well, but I still don't see the bird." 

Hopefully the bird comes back to Lake Cheraw, where it would be easier to see.  

The bird was first reported on e-bird (probably from their phone) yesterday, with a photo, from Patrica and Richard Williams.  

When people submit sightings to e-bird from public birding locations, it would be good to also post the sighting to cobirds, or call the Colorado RBA.  Too many rare birds are reported to e-bird, that don't seem to make it to cobirds or the Colorado RBA.
