I guess it's that time of year again. Already seen lots of reports of
post-breeding dispersal with a variety of species, but didn't expect this to
happen in my yard!
Yesterday evening I had three juvenile White Ibis foraging in a small wet
area behind the pond at my house. Quite an unexpected yard bird, #175! They
hung around for about 45 minutes, moving out onto the open lawn having lots
of fun with the abundant insect life. They were fairly tame, allowing close
approach.
