Always an interesting scene when birds not of a feather flock together.

Excellent capture Jer! Those guys sure have good balance on a pretty small branch, particularly the one on the right.

A Heron among the Ibis? Not that sure of ID-ing wading birds. Fantastic image!

Thank you! I think the straight-billed one is an egret - but I could certainly be wrong. I like to photograph birds but I know very little about 'em.

What a super clean shot of these birds.

Two appear to only have one leg... is this what you meant be diversity?

Nice capture of the Ibis and Snowy Egret together in the same place.


Hint Jer, I gave you the link to Cornell's birds online that will help you ID birds you don't recognize. Here it is again. Online bird guide, bird ID help, life history, bird sounds from Cornell All About Birds

Thanks for the nice words regarding the photo. Your comment reminded me - a total non sequitur - that no one is more busy than a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest!

Thanks, Mar!! And the Cornell link is now firmly ensconced on my Favorites. Maybe I can learn something after all these years.

At least your wiring is still intact - mine corroded years ago.

Must be a new home branch, in that with so many birds, it is very clean. ) Very nice and fortunate wildlife capture. Great work.
