A trip to the Wescott shopping center turned into a bird outing yesterday afternoon! The water reservoir near Marshalls had dozens of wading birds. I saw Wood Storks, White Ibis, Great Egrets and Snowy Egrets. I didn’t have my Canon DSLR so I used my iPhone 12, and it did fine. I later tweaked the images with the Snapseed photo app.
This may have been the most Wood Storks I have ever seen together in one place.
Wood Storks have several collective names: muster, clatter, swoop, phalanx and…what…filth? A filth of Wood Storks. Doesn’t sound right or good!
