    White Ibis

    This is part of a larger flock totaling 56 birds. We only saw them in flight and their whereabouts at other times was unknown.

    Sacred Ibis or Wood stork in Florida?

    I have seen this bird numerous times in this lake. It looks like an ibis to me but it has a black head. Upon researching it, it can be a sacred Ibis or Wood stork but based on the wing color I think it is a Wood stork. Thanks for the help. Article I found on the topic attached as well.
