Let's Play Hide and Seek

How strange that Nature does not knock, and yet does not intrude!

Look what I saw on one of my walks last week, along the side of the road...

 
Several Ibis were wandering around a hibiscus bush.  I tried to capture all of them, but they kept evading me and going behind the bush...

I know it's hard to see, but I actually counted five altogether, but try as hard as I could they kept going the opposite way that I was...

Seriously, you would have thought we were playing a game of hide and seek the way they kept avoiding my camera and me...

This was the best I could do and I decided I would continue with my walk.  Not too far from where this photo was taken is Lake Ibis, which is located right in our RV park...

But when I think about an Ibis I remember this painting I did last year with the three by the seashore...
