It is never a dull moment when the White Faced Ibis are around. So full of color you just look and be in wonder. A full palette all in one bird. Truly amazing.

I’m always amazed at the amount of color on even the most bland looking birds. Iridescence adds another layer (and lots more colors).

HI Kit and isn’t it amazing how those colors can change as the light hits those feathers at even just a slightly different angle.

There have been times when I’ve spotted this ibis species and it looks black. Excellent gathering of color here, Mike. Wonderful photo.

It just seems a disservice to this bird to call it ‘white faced.’ It is … but that’s certainly not its most intriguing color!

Hi Celia, yes the White Faced Ibis would best be called the magnificent or perhaps splendid Ibis.
