Glossy Ibis at Cherry Creek State Park (Arapahoe County)

[Cheryl Teuton]

This afternoon, Dan and I found a Glossy Ibis associating with 7 White-faced Ibis in the pond across from the model airplane field at Cherry Creek State Park. The birds were methodically feeding in the cattails at the periphery of the pond, and in the wet field to the west of the pond.  They disappear for long periods while in the cattails, but make periodic appearances that allow a fairly close look.
