This is a photo of a White Ibis. They are exotic looking birds that live in Florida year round. You can find Ibis near fresh water, saltwater, in marshes and in fields. Pretty much the only pale you don't find Ibis is in urban areas and in oak hammocks and pine forests. All this makes them sound like they are a very common bird. In fact they are not rare, nor common.
They usually are found in small family units. Here's a photo of an immature white ibis. This particular photo of a White Ibis was taken at Lake Maggoire in St. Pewtersburg Fl in the afternoon with my latest camera, a Fuji FinePix s5100. |
