Glossy Ibis twitch

For this bird I didn't have to travel far. It was found right here in Västerås! Very nice species!
But it was a very unusual sight in Asköviken, it just didn't fit here. Not that I wouldn't like to see one again... =)
Unfortunately the bird flew away after a few hours, and therefore many birders missed it.
