I saw this flock along A1A near the entrance to Stuart Beach today while out for a bird walk.

Audubon Field Guide: White Ibis 

One of the most numerous wading birds in Florida, and common elsewhere in the southeast. Highly sociable at all seasons, roosting and feeding in flocks, nesting in large colonies.
