Allen Whitson saw---and captured for us here---this magnificent ibis just hanging about beside Lake Dora in the adorable Central Florida town of Mount Dora.
Sometimes it's easy to forget the good fortune of living in a state
where you see magnificent wildlife just hanging about the lakes, ponds,
and wetlands you pass every day. One reason I started this blog was to
remind myself not to forget how much love we ought to be giving to
Florida's animal people.
Have you ever seen a more lavish red than the red of this magnificent
creature's giant bill? It's a rhetorical question. You know you
haven't.
