After reading a report from David Pryor in Ontbirds, I went to see the Ibis in Milton around lunch time. It was feeding in the wet field near Britannia and 8th line.  I had the opportunity to see and photograph this magnificent bird for about half an hour before it flew away towards west. I also saw a pair of Greater Yellowlegs in the nearby field. The Ibis was too far from the road to get any high quality photo - these are the best I got. Others might have better luck.

It was nice to see you again Dinu.  Man did I ever get there in the nick of time or what?  Got 3 shots off and then it just took off.  I think I had shaky hands cuz my pics came out rather poorly.  At least I got it :)

Thanks Elias - it was great seeing you too. After missing out the Avocets last week - I was ready this time. As soon as the alert came I took off. Also thanks to your post on Sunday I managed to see the Chukars.
