RE: [nysbirds-l] White-faced Ibis Heckscher SP Suffolk Co.
I believe the White-faced Ibis present at Heckscher today was a fourth individual, distinct from the two birds present here on 1 May: https://flic.kr/p/2emuZme https://flic.kr/p/258UbgT --and also from the brighter bird present at adjacent Timber Point on 15 Apr: https://flic.kr/p/TpeSQd Today's bird showed bright red facial skin and a broad white border, most like the bird of 15 Apr, but unlike that bird it was notably large, tawny-colored, and showed wholly bright pinkish legs (all three of the birds present earlier this season showed color mostly around the ankles): https://flic.kr/p/25hf8eH When I eventually took a careful count of the ibides, I found exactly 107 Glossy and 1 White-faced.

The two White-faced Ibises continued in the flooded picnic area when I left around 10:00. Both are interesting-looking and not quite typical. One individual, the one Pat found yesterday I think, has very limited white facial feathering and not-very-bright (but definitely pink-red, especially in good light) facial skin and eye. The second individual, found by Pat this morning, is more typical-looking in these respects. Both show decidedly pink-red ankles and gray bills--appropriate for White-faced Ibis. Interestingly, the duller-faced bird is very large and very tawny-colored on the neck and body--classic White-faced--whereas the brighter-faced bird looks much more like a Glossy Ibis in terms of structure and body plumage. My best assessment is that both are within the range of expected variation for relatively dull adult White-faced Ibises.

Last evening I photographed (poorly, as is my usual wont) a White-faced Ibis in non breeding plumage--no white borders around the pink eye and facial skin, and legs pink only around the "knees", feeding with 17 Glossy Ibis in the flooded picnic area of Field 6. This morning I checked again; there were at least 30 ibis feeding actively in the puddles, and I immediately picked out a White-faced, this one showing moderately distinct white borders on the face, and brighter pink legs than yesterday's bird. I had to race off to work but alerted Shai Mitra to be looking out for a second bird when he arrived shortly after. Shai did indeed find what is certainly yesterday's bird in addition to the better marked individual.

*Note: This event meets in Classroom C at the Prospect Park Zoo. Please see below for details.* *Tomorrow! Tuesday May 14 7PM* TESSA BOASE PRESENTS: MRS PANKHURST’S PURPLE FEATHER: FASHION, FURY AND FEMINISM – WOMEN’S FIGHT FOR CHANGE For half a century, from the 1870s to the 1920s, women on both sides of the Atlantic were gripped by a fashion craze that decreed all hats should be laden with feathers. Not just feathers, but wings, bird and whole bodies of birds – often several birds at a time. Species the world over were slowly brought to the brink of extinction, and all for the sake of millinery. Campaigning on behalf of the birds was a small band of angry woman with a splendidly simple goal. They were going to stamp out the fashion for feathers in hats. The ‘feather fight’, as it became known, was bitter, vicious and un-sisterly. Wearers of the ‘bird hat’ were attacked as narcissists and slaughterers. Edwardian fashion victims hit back, calling their female critics ‘plumage cranks’ and ‘feather faddists’. Why shouldn’t emancipated women wear what they wanted? Leading the battle in Britain was a fearsome woman who has not been remembered by history, and yet for 50 years was the driving force behind the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), today Britain’s biggest conservation charity. Her name was Etta Lemon. Where she lead in1889, the Audubon Society would follow. When social historian Tessa Boase told the RSPB she wanted to write their early story, they refused to let her revisit their archives. To a former investigative journalist and Oxford English graduate, this was a challenge she could not resist . . . Join her to hear the intriguing untold story of women, birds, hats – and votes. After the talk, Tessa will be signing copies of her book, Mrs Pankhurst’s Purple Feather: Fashion, Fury and Feminism – Women’s Fight for Change.
