I was there this afternoon and it was a Great Egret that was attacked by the Stilts. Cattle Egret was still present and I saw at least five Yellow-headed Blackbirds in the Pickleweed. No luck on the Bank Swallows. Other sightings of interest were a pair of Blue-winged Teal and two continuing Bonaparte’s gulls.
