After several minutes of this deep water foraging behavior, this White-faced Ibis made its way toward me into more shallow water Posed for a little while, and then began to preen I’m glad I took the time to visit Colusa National Wildlife Refuge on this day. You never know what you might see! Get yours today! Beautiful bird.

Mostly the ducks were Red-breasted Merganser and Greater Scaup , the two most prevalent species on the pond, but there were a few other birds mixed in as well. Either way, it was a heck of a sight and another example of why Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge is the best place in New York City to see amazing wildlife spectacles.

I briefly entertained the idea that I had found a rare species never before seen in New York but quickly came to my senses and realized that I was dealing with a leucistic individual. OpticsPlanet - Great prices on binoculars for birding , spotting scopes , telescopes , flashlights , compasses & more! I for one missed it.

It may be as sick as deliberately targeting an endangered species for death. Birders know that the light’s not always perfect or even particularly good when you’re trying to tell one species from another. So we can squawk at the state wildlife departments all we want, but the USFWS has the final say. The big white one.

Here is another photo of this beautiful species. About the Author Larry Larry Jordan was introduced to birding after moving to northern California where he was overwhelmed by the local wildlife, forcing him to buy his first field guide just to be able to identify all the species visiting his yard. Thanks for visiting!

In southern Africa, there are two species. I too am fascinated by the name of this species. Larry Jordan Mar 21st, 2011 at 12:31 am Awesome photos Redgannet! Frank Mar 22nd, 2011 at 8:02 pm Awesome images of a species that looks somewhat prehistoric. How do we know this? Feeling lazy, or I would do the research myself.)
