Mike and others,
Several of us were out during late afternoon today to search for the bird - as far as I know, no one was able to see it. Viewing conditions (distance, stormy/windy weather) may have prevented us from finding it. In addition, high tide was later than the last few days, which may have meant that the bird either showed up later than before (when it was windy/stormy and hard to view the birds) or simply did not appear before everyone left. However, starting tomorrow, the afternoon high tide will likely be too late to view this bird. After Monday, if you show up early in the morning, you may have a chance to find the bird during morning high tide (see https://tides.willyweather.com/ca/san-mateo-county/san-francisco-bay--ravenswood-slough-entrance.html for tides - 5 ft or more is best for this bird).
