White Ibis

[Brian Sugden]

The first image was taken on Fort Myers Beach, Florida and is a mature bird though not in breeding plumage. The second is an immature white ibis and was taken at Fort Desoto. I was fortunate to avoid getting the heads of other birds in the shot as they were just out of frame at the bottom of the image.

1DX with 300mm f2.8 L IS II lens + 1.4 III TC.

Thanks for looking.

Re: White Ibis

Both very nice. It looks to me that someone gets up very early in the morning to catch these images.

Re: White Ibis

Thanks David. Sunrise in Florida in May is about 06:45 so not too early.

Re: White Ibis

I rather like the first Brian and the colours of the second, just a shame the rear wing is in shadow.

Dee and I enjoy seeing all these shots as it gives a flavour of what we may hope to see ourselves in October
