Glossy Ibis at Mains of Usan

   
A Glossy Ibis was found in a field at Mains of Usan by James A Wolstencroft on Friday 10th October and was still feeding in the field and burn on 14/10/2025 when these photos of it with a Stickleback were taken. It was very unphased by people walking through the field, it would just fly into the burn near the beach.
Two UHD videos on the blue links below...

It dropped the Stickleback behind its right leg

Breaking off the spines?



Now lined up head first



Perfect positioning




Past the point of no return
