White Ibis

A flock was feeding in my front yard this morning, so I got a series of pics.

It included young ones.

Young and old.

Second shot of the two.

There were at least a dozen.

Maybe more....

Last pic.

Wow gp they are so cool looking! I would love to have them in my yard! GM

haha GP! Can't believe it's that time of year again for them to be walking in your yard.

Great pics, gardenpom! Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful pics gp! That must really be a sight!

Thanks, guys....they are up and down the streets fairly often, going from yard to yard.

Love the ibis pic GP. thanks for sharing.

Great show GP. Lucky you, they're aerating and fertilizing the lawn as they eat insects. Perfect.

Wow GP...I would love to have these beauties in my yard..too cool!

Gee, I'd love to see these beauties in my yard too. How lucky you are! They're just beautiful.

This morning a flock of at least twenty White Ibis walked around the yard and every one of them was a youngster!

That would be neat to see out the window!!

Nice photos, GP. I've only ever photographed one immature White Ibis here in Maryland. Great to see a nice flock of them.

Thanks, Linth.

Four young ones perched on the utility line this morning.

Last shot.

What great shots, GP. It must have been a sight to behold.

I had my macro camera with me when I spotted them....I hoped they would still be there when I returned with my 300mm, and they were. They hung around for about fifteen minutes. Thank you, Margaret.

You'd wonder why they would choose to perch on something so relatively narrow with those great big feet. It can't have been easy for them.

Now that is an awesome sight!!

Very cool GP!

Does seem silly perching on something like that...they were having some trouble maintaining balance. Maybe wisdom does come with age;) Thanks everyone.

Awesome shots GP...I can't imagine seeing something like these birds!

This is the closest I have been to ibis. This was with a 300mm lens.

Nice pic, Frank...I saw this one in the ID forum(I think).
