Description
This is a juvenile White Ibis and I know that you like them Chip. We are not sure how s/he arrived along our lake because this one was very small and so were the wings. This little cutie will grow up to be 25 inches (64cm) long with a wing span of about 38 inches (97cm). Large groups, 50 or more, arrive daily and walk around our lake eating insects. We call them our pest control team. None of us have ever seen one so small. A great zoom.
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated.

Very cool capture Dana and a wonderful dedication to Chip! how far away were you when you took the shot?
nice photo Dana, your friend will enjoy it.
WOW! Thank you! If the ancient Egyptian gods were real, then the god Thoth would probably be embarrassed at you showing the world his baby picture! Or not...Thoth doesn't seem to be one of those mythic divinities with an ego to throw around and so he'd probably be amused. I have a particular affinity with Thoth, since I'm a writer, and according to ancient Egyptian mythology, he was the inventor of writing...and an ibis to top it off. This is a marvel of a photo and I love the casual elegance of this little person! Thank you very much for the dedication!
Ohhhh.....adorable bird Dana, so White! Lovely!
wonderful shot of this bird
That's a good one Dana!
This shot and bird is a beauty Dana.
It looks a bit like you mate. ;)
I love these birds, nice shot.
Fantastic capturem y friend.
Wonderful capture and dedication, dear Dana. Hugs for all day. Di. xx
Juveniles usually have a lot of brown on them, this one may just be extra small. They are great birds to have around. They often travel through our neighborhood, from lawn to lawn searching for insects.
What a cutie! I should love to have those on the lawn here!
Such a beautiful bird and so clean nice shot dude.
a lovely capture
LOL@Chip! At any rate, the bird isn't posing on a bearskin rug with a bare bottom for the world to see. He/she is a gorgeous little creature, very clean and white and fluffy. Excellent shot!
Beautiful baby bird, superb shot !
S/he looks so cute, very clean & so white!! xxx
Good shot.
great dedication
very impressive!
A lovely capture of this beautiful little bird. Maybe his Mum decided to live in Florida permanently as the climate is so good and produced this little one. He is so white against the green grass.
Wonderful capture and dedication to Chip!!
That's what I was missing while you where away and that was these informative lessons that accompanied your captures...I'm whole again.... ~smiles!~
