Subject: [ia-bird] Four Ibis at Bays Branch 10/17/2025
There were four Ibis (I'm thinking Glossy Ibis due to lack of any white
around the eye/cheek) at Bays Branch today and appeared to be a family as
small as the juveniles were. Quite far out and they moved around a lot. The
ducks flew in large flocks when one went over just like they would if it
were a hawk or eagle.
Duck season starts tomorrow so they will likely remain South on the refuge
area.
