Observation details
Medium sized dark bird observed in flight with long legs stretched way beyond tail and relatively long thin neck and bill. Bill was slightly down curved. Upper sides a dark browny green with some luminescent green more in the outer wings. Certainly didn't have good enough looks to rule out a WF Ibis. Likely a juvenile / immature based on lack of facial features but not totally sure on that. Initially observed as it flew up from the pond on the north side of the marsh and landed in the reeds straight out from the lookout. Then observed flying up briefly on two further occasions.
