Observation details
Two were bright breeding adults, and one was a very drab adult. I could see a reddish iris with reddish purple and not blue facial color with my spotting scope.. The white border wraped around the eye a bit as well.. I still can't find a definitive Glossy Ibis in SW AR. I labeled the juvenile as Plegadis sp., but by association, I wonder if it is not the offspring of the two bright adults. See photos of all of the birds. My main lens is being repaired so I had to use my back up lens, thus photo quality is not as great. The drab adult is between the two bright adults in the seventh photo, and the juvenile is between them in the eighth photo. All four birds are depicted in the last photo.
