[kent marshman]

i was out on thanet marshes friday evening and a bird flew over,
thougt it was a cormarant till a saw its beak and legs behind it,
me and my freind dave both said glosy ibis at the same time never seen one before, its been seen at stodmarsh nature res now, just thougt you might be interested if theirs any twitchers on the site.

There was a large flock in Ireland a couple of days ago which has fragmented with small numbers now on the mainland, including your bird.

Many years ago there were 2 Glossy Ibis regularly roosting at Stodmarsh.

Maybe a future coloniser like the Little Egret! Suppose not though...
