Observation details
Huge thanks to Vincent O’Brien for letting us know that this bird was at Windy Point. We traveled there as quickly as possible and were delighted to see this bird among a large flock of White-faced Ibises. Blue-gray facial skin; partial white eye-wrap, which did not extend behind eyes. Dark brown eyes. Dark head with green iridescence. Excellent contrast to pink facial skin and red eyes of nearby White-faced Ibises. Flock eventually disturbed and took flight after boating party blaring loud music roared by far too close to this resting flock. Lastly, special thanks to park staff for their sensitivity around these resting birds. Photos to follow.
