Juvenile Glossy Ibis - New Jersey

Juvenile Glossy Ibis perched a top of the rookery:

Juvenile Glossy Ibis ( Plegadis falcinellus ) at the heronry - New Jersey

This was a common scene last season, at the New Jersey’s own heron rookery, to see these young birds posing nicely for photographs. Numbers of nesting Glossy Ibises increased dramatically compared to 2019. I wonder what this season will bring?
