On Tuesday (4/19/11) on my way to Shad landing State Park on Rt 113 when I noticed a large flock of Glossy Ibis feeding along the road.  I stopped and took a good look at the flock and was surprised to find a White-faced Ibis feeding along with the flock of about 30 Glossy Ibis. The Ibis flock was 6 minutes southwest of Shad landing SP.  
After shad landing I went Shad fishing at Porters Crossing and saw the following birds,
4 Northern Parulas
2 Yellow Warblers
1 Chestnut-sided Warbler
1 Magnolia Warbler 
5 Yellow-rumped Warblers
3 Prairie Warblers 
6 Pine Warblers
4 Yellow-throated Warblers
3 Worm-eating Warblers 
4 Prothonotary Warblers 
5 Black-and-white Warblers
7 American Redstarts 
4 Ovenbirds
3 Louisiana Waterthrushes
2 Common Yellowthroats 
1 Hooded Warbler (adult male)
2 Summer Tanager 
1 Scarlet Tanager 
3 Wood Thrush
4 White-eyed Vireos
1 Red-eyed Vireo
4 Yellow-throated Vireos
7 Blue-gray Gnatcatchers
2 Great Crested Flycatcher 
5 Wood Ducks 
15 Tufted Titmice  
9 Carolina Chickadees
1 Broad-wing Hawk 
2 Red-shouldered Hawks
3 Barred Owls
At times it sounded like a jungle with with more then 9 species calling together.
