We drove almost to Herbert yesterday to take our chances on an Ibis or two at Francis Lake. Were happy to see one, though too far away to make a decent photo. Lots of ducks there as well as Grebes and a few shorebirds. I'd go again just to gaze at the White-faced Ibis. Apparently we saw one in Mexico in 2007, but this was our first Canadian Ibis. We've seen the White Ibis more often in Mexico, but not enough to make them seem common.
An unexpected sighting was what I take to be a Greater White-fronted Goose sticking close to a couple of Canadas. A little far away for a great photo, but it shows the important markings.
