Having not been able to head out Bird Watching for the past couple of weeks, I felt pretty keen to get out at least once this weekend. Thankfully, I had a little over an hour window on Saturday afternoon and so headed back to Herdsman Lake for a better look around. There didn't seem to be too many birds about and so I was feeling a little despondent until I came across a group of Glossy and White Ibis. Both were bathing and then preening and drying themselves. The dark water and afternoon sun really reveal the oily, iridescence of the Glossy Ibis's feathers.
