Very pleasurable, Chip. I like the two orange billed ones fishing the best.

Mike - Much appreciated. The sun wasn't too strong that day, so it wasn't too hard to manage the whites on those 2 ibis. (What's the plural of "ibis," by the way? )

Thanks very much. That 4th one is something new for me.

Thanks very much, Fred. I've only seen that type of bird in that second photo once before (when I was without my camera), so I was happy to get that capture.
