Steve Holliday and I had a close look at the Australian White Ibis colony at Yowani this morning (in the fog) and counted approx. 85 nests. There are chicks of all ages in the nests, and many birds still sitting, presumably on eggs.

There are also at least 10 Little Pied Cormorant nests and 1 Little Black Cormorant nest, but no evidence yet of chicks in these.

Attached is a photo of a small section of the colony, showing some of the ibis chicks and some LPC nests.
