White ibis

It's not uncommon for storks, ibises, herons, and egrets to nest in or forage in the same area. I remember seeing some egrets in a large woodstork colony near St. Augustine.

that is what we thought. the limpkins are the brown with some light spots?

Hi- the darker birds may just be juvenile Ibis

we do get both here but the limpkins seem to follow the gators

i see they are not

are limpkins and ibis the same thing? they seem to flock together and look alike except the color

dhoooo thank you

Limpkin is a brown wading bird, where as a limpet is an invertebrate critter. ; )
