It is not too difficult to find these sites. For some years on and off, I used to play golf with my son on the golf course abutting Devereux, and always wondered what was in and around the adjacent stretch of water. Now I have time to explore and find out. Thanks Mo and mon@rch - I feel blessed to live in this area, near wonderful bird sites - and flora sites in the spring.

Morning light would be best. I hope you get to see them with a decent background.

It looks like that afternoon back lighting is still a challenge though. Nice Ibis photos. It looks like that afternoon back lighting is still a challenge though.
