GLOSSY IBIS-RHUDDLAN-FLINTSHIRE

I visited North Wales this morning, where I connected with a stunning glossy ibis. The bird was found late afternoon yesterday and thankfully hung around so I could see it today.


This is not the bird I dipped in late January at Traeth Glaslyn Nature Reserve, Porthmadog, as this bird had worn coverts. A great bird and in such amazing condition, well worth the drive.
