These birds were photographed in April at the
Wetlands in Yeppoon, Queensland, Australia.
Flight of the Egret
Although the water levels were down, it was still
pretty exciting. Egret, White Ibis and one
Straw-necked Ibis, Threskiornis spinicollis in flight.
Frogmarching White Ibis, Threskiornis molucca
one got lucky and caught his breakfast.
