Media notes
This enlarged photo shows that at least one of the dark ibis was Glossy Ibis. The thin blue facial skin around the eye was even more evident through the scope. The pictures were challenging because the birds were extremely far away in a flooded field.
Observation details
These birds were seen in the scope. Several individuals were confirmed to be in alternate plumage. The blue feathers around the eye were visible. I believe that I obtained photographs sufficient to show this detail in at least one or two birds.
