| Date/Location | Notes |
| 12-25-2014/Laguna | Diving between the reed beds, then lounging on the fence; have also seen skimming the water edge mid-lake on east side and resting in the eucs there |
| 15-01-2015/Arb | Fly-over at first pond, chattering loudly, then out to the campus |
| 04-02-2015/Craig | Seen numerous times before, always a lone male, favoring the sycamores on the point and along the lower north creek |
| 21-04-2015/Arb | Startled him on a limb over the first pond; he flew rapid circles, cackling loudy, then paused long enough for a quick picture before heading out toward the campus |
