3 gadwall at the canoe lake. east winds do seem to be kicking the gulls into gear this time, big final push of hg's at dusk which i couldnt get any purchase on, when conditions are like this i hate being at work.

Glossy Ibis

about as cooperative as rarities get - choosing to feed right beside the entrance track when there's the whole of brading marsh to get lost in. nice red tones on the under body and marginal wing coverts and glossy green scaps and median/lesser coverts makes this at least a 2nd-winter?
