User's notes

I apologise for the quality of the photos. I'm guessing this was the species - alone, among hundreds of roosting corellas and cockatoos.

Well done, I have seen two of them roosting there before but it was too dark for my camera.

I was so disappointed with these photos - hence, needing to take a course in photography! But hopefully they're good enough for identification purposes.

The same occurs in Fadden, where both white and straw-necked ibis intermittently roost with the cockatoos and corellas
