Hello Ontbirders
Just a heads up that today, July 5th, at 1:30p.m. Ben and I had close-up views of the ibis and and got a few photos. It appears the ibis maybe  a White-faced Ibis based on the pink facial skin, red eye, and appears to have reddish looking knee joints. The ibis was still present at 4:10p.m.  Good Birding, Bruce and Ben

Directions: From Ottawa take Hwy. 417 west to the Carp Road exit. and turn right and follow Carp Road to the village of Carp. After crossing the bridge take the first right, Rivington Str. and follow to the end.
