Your memory serves, Val: It happened that our son worked in an office in the 
Sullyfield Business Park, where that second (yes, immature) white ibis spent 
a couple of weeks on the margins of a small pond. I took a number of slides 
but sadly have no idea whatever became of them, which is why I use a digital 
camera these days.
