Description

This breeding pair of White-Faced Ibis are exceptionally rare visitors to our wetlands. I've sure never seen the likes of them before! Lucky to get even this shot, taken at max range with a 380mm lens. I hope you find them as special a treat as I do; thanks for viewing.

What a treat! Where did you shoot this? A practically non-existent bird in Europe... Thanks for sharing!

Wow, I've never seen anything like them before. LUCKY FIND and capture! The feathers look almost metalic! I'll have to show Danielle these birds; she'll tell me all about them (she studies animals... )
