Phil et al.:

Several people were photographing this bird as it was being extremely
cooperative. Given the amount of film being shot, there should be many
pix that will show enough detail that you will definitely be able to
distinguish that this bird is/was immature.

We were unable to get connected to the internet last night and I came
into work late today but the Wood STork was present until sunset on
8/27. There were no hurricane related birds at Pt. Lookout though there
were Black, Forster's, Common, Royal and Caspian Terns flying about in
the 35-45 mph winds.
