Glossy Ibis at the Scrape today, 'record shot', there were 2 birds but both too far away and playing hard to get but they had apparently been seen on the island yesterday so I may return later!
Great color, this pictures looks great too, but yet again, the reflection killed the glossy screen for me.

Glossy black-cockatoos are the smallest of the black cockatoo family and can be found in she-oak (casuarina) forests along the east coast of Australia.
This cockatoo is sitting in a she-oak tree, and eating the very she-oak nuts/cones that it prefers. In fact it pretty much denuded the tree of its seeds before it was done, as all cockatoos are wont to do...
This adult Glossy Ibis (a rarity in California), first discovered by local birders about a week ago, has been seen daily along the Los Angeles River, in the Sepulveda Basin area of Los Angeles County, CA. 31 May, 2016..
Not the greatest pics but the light was going and it was a long way off. It was more important I got to see a bird that's quite a rarity.
A seldom seen snake, the glossy crayfish watersnake. These nocturnal snakes specialize in eating freshly shed crayfish. They will eat other things as well such as fish and amphibians.
