CommentDue to the recent rains in the Gulf Country there are literally thousands of wetland birds up at Karumba. I saw hundreds of Glossy Ibis and was lucky here to get close to this individual. Many people would believe that they are a black bird however when the sun hits them at the right angle it reveals a different story. Such a unique and beautiful bird.
