White ibis - Eudocimus albus

One of the most numerous wading birds in Florida, and common elsewhere in the southeast. The White Ibis is highly sociable at all seasons, roosting and feeding in flocks, and nesting in large colonies. Note the red face, long decurved red bill, and restricted black wingtips.

Foto taken on Sanibel near J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge. More info on the latter can be found in Scott's (scottevers7) excellent posts of the previous days.

VERY NICE ACTION PICTURE !

Hi Gabi! we often see pictures of birds flying or standing on a branch or beautifully perched on a fence. Yours is very different. Seeing these birds running in the foam is very refreshing. I like it.
Technically it sharp and very well exposed considring it is mostly white. In fact it an excellent HIGHKEY picture. Composition is not at the top, but I guess you were rushing as much as they were.
Excellent work and TFS.

Wow, Gabi. That is an amazing shot. Very different. What an unusual background for these ibises. The details are super sharp, and the light is excellent. Stunning composition. Well done and TFS. : )

Hi Gabi,
I love this shot, the birds are so pretty and there is so much "action" in that shot.
I can see the drops and the foam glittering and you had the perfect light. Excellent, thank you very much

What fun they are having in the surf Gabi! Excellent action shot, I like it a lot, well done. TFS.

Extreme image. Bizarre, I can only assume that they were on the beach, it looks like surf foam but I'm not sure? Very sharp image and the white and flesh colur is fantastically exposed. You've done very well here.

Hi Gabi,
A superb shot! The color, clarity, and detail, are stunningly pefect. A really neat shot to find them in the surf. Sanibel is such an amazing place. I would live there if I could afford it.
