Media notes
Part of flock of 22 gloss ibis flying over flooded agricultural fields, headed southeast to marshes
Observation details
Flock of 22 individuals clearly seen in flight. I saw them fly in from the west, off to the southeast (before I lost them behind the trees, they appeared to be descending as if to land in marshes, not sure if they were headed north or south of the road). Another birder reported he had seen them take off from the flooded agricultural fields west of the greenhouses. This flock and number continuing. Uncropped photos posted.
