Copyright 2020 Pamela BreitbergI learned more today, while making sure to properly identify this Everglade’s bird. It is a Glossy Ibis.

On the left is a Showy Egret; on the right is a White Ibis. I pinch myself whenever I visit the Everglades because prior to these visits I only observed these beautiful creatures in a midwest zoo.
