A bright sunrise arrived along with these two White Ibis. I had just long enough to grab a couple shots of these two feeding and the juvie before they disappeared just as quickly as they appeared out of the brush.

I've never seen such intense breeding colors before... just look at the juvie Ibis to compare in the same photo to get some idea.

That is intense Eric. I've never seen them in breeding colors as I don't go any ware near Florida this time of year.

Thanks Morris, I don't have much choice, so I'm here... leaving the comfort of air conditioned spaces is the hard part down here...heh.

Thanks Chris! Yeah, Florida can be fun, with the migrations rotating in and out, there is a lot to see.
