Plegadis falcinellus
I could see these through the reeds while eating lunch but thought they were Gallinules. It was only when I stood up afterwards that I saw a curved bill through the reeds and decided to take a closer look. I had to stand on the railings to get these pictures.
Coastal marshes.

They are resident in the extreme south but usually visit this area in summer. These two must have heard about the good weather we are having here!
Very nice, I love this birds, they are rare in my area, I saw this bird only once in Ornithological reserve...
Sure was worth it!
