[Maine-birds] Glossy Ibis Pics ?? Am I seeing White Faced or not??

From the Spurwink Marsh in Cape Elizabeth - this Glossy Ibis about 15 feet from my deck.......I had 8 others this morning and two this afternoon/tonight but too far away for a closer photo.  Is that white around the eye what I've read about in prior posts or are they all like this?  I always feel so blessed when interesting birds wander in to my yard.  I'm really not familiar with marsh birds tho.  This year we just mowed the field in the yard down close to the marsh and now the marsh birds are finding the low/wet spots and coming up to feed.
