Glossy Ibis (Plegadis falcinellus)
August 11, 2023
John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge, Tinicum, Pennsylvania
Not a bird I've ever seen around here before. Apparently after breeding season along the coast, they are known to explore widely before heading to southern coastal waters for the winter.

Glossy Ibis... at the marshy end of Willow Lake (marshy at least for now - it should dry up moving into late spring/early summer). I first noticed them a week or so ago. I keep saying I'm not a 'birder' but I am an opportunist when wildlife is a part of the landscapes I usually photograph. I was pretty sure they were Ibis but I had to look them up to verify what I thought I remembered - and then further narrowed them down to the Glossy Ibis. I have to admit, that I did specifically leave home this morning with just my long lens (and my dog Ginger) with the intent of capturing these images - so I also have to admit to myself that I'm at least 'birder adjacent' ;)

A glossy ibis stands in the waters of Maguri Motapung Beel lake in Assam, India. The wetlands is known as a haven for birdwatchers, offering the chance of seeing such intriguingly named species as the fulvous whistling duck, the great thick-knee and the swamp grass babbler.

Fishlake Meadows, Romsey: A special place
This nature reserve is equally as uplifting to visit in the spring and summer months when exotic Hobbies dash through the sky and colossal Stag Beetles roam the canal side path as it is in winter when Gadwall, Pintail, Pochard and Teal immerse me in a world of waterfowl.
A magnificent raptor is a star attraction to this reserve in spring and summer, Ospreys (particularly one) standing like grand statues and offering breathtaking moments of natural wonder when they fish. Many raptors adorn the skies here, Marsh Harrier in its prime habitat, ravishing Red Kite, Buzzard and Kestrel. Sparrowhawk also a key species in this oasis of wild in an urban area and a non-bird of prey evolutionary lookalike is a mesmerising sight and sound here on spring days, the Cuckoo. Its similarly in appearance to the predatory Sparrowhawk able to fool the adults of its host species into leaving their nest so it can insert its imposter egg. Other key waterbirds to see here include bight Egyptian Geese and Greylags, Great Crested Grebe, Common Gull, Snipe and dazzling Water Rail always a species to cherish seeing. Another of the main stars of this reserve is an elegant giant which is gripping the south of the country now, Great White Egret. Purple Heron and Glossy Ibis are two rarities I was lucky to see here. I was ecstatic to see a Kingfisher catch a fish along the canal when reaching the reserve as was I when I was so fortunate to see a splendid Cetti’s Warbler after being surrounded by their bright and cherry calls evocative of a reedbed paradise. Sedge and Garden Warbler other amazing warblers I’ve seen here. Other passerines it’s a treat to see here include Wren, Bullfinch, Blackcap, Treecreeper, captivating Nuthatch, vibrant Stonechat and Reed Bunting. A Roe Deer a delight to see.
It's an insect haven too with Hairy Dragonfly one of the first spring dragonflies to see and the gem of Banded Demoiselle another key species with Migrant Hawker enjoyed here too. Speckled Wood and Green-veined White fly the flag for beautiful butterflies and Brimstone moth and Grey Birch are among sensational moths I’ve seen here. Drinker moth caterpillar and vigorous ruby Cardinal beetle are other key insects I’ve seen here. Nursery web spider was another of nature’s fascinating little stars which has thrilled me here. Onto plants and there is an array of colour here throughout the seasons created by stunning species such as wood avens, comfrey, meadowsweet, cuckooflower, forget-me-not, hemp agrimony, bird vetch, yellow iris, water lily, hogweed, traveller’s joy and marsh marigold. A sight of intricate and alluring turkey tail fungi clinging to a stump beside the canal at one time lit up by the glorious winter sun was wonderful.
This brilliant nature reserve with its distinctive dead trees and thriving reedbed, wetland, canal and woodland habitat is a star of a reserve that has risen over the past few years and an exciting vision of how to use land for nature and let a landscape be transformed. A lesson of hope, a place I always come back from inspired.

Glossy ibis (Plegadis falcinellus) (breeding plumage), family Threskiornithidae
In breeding plumage, glossy ibises have multi-colored plumage, with reddish-brown bodies and greenish wings. Outside of breeding plumage, they are much duller in color, and appear black. From a distance, they often look darker.
Nests are elevated above water, at a height of at least a meter (~3 feet), and built from twigs and vegetation.
