I love #Ibises with their ridiculous beaks. They don't occur in my area. *sigh*

Two American White Ibises stand on a sloping wooden pier, both facing left. The bird on the left stands on both legs, while the second balances on one leg. In the background, a cormorant perches on a concrete wall jutting into a large body of water.

Several American White Ibises and an egret perch among bare tree branches. The ibises stand on one leg each, heads tucked under their wings in a roosting posture.

Per Rob (@robcrank68.bsky.social), today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WaterDroplets and the Alt theme is #OneLeg.

I've gone with the alt. Both photos were taken near Wilmington NC US in December 2025.

A colony of birds, mostly ibises with a few herons and egrets, in several adjacent lakeside trees.

These trees near the lake in Airlie Gardens held an impressive mix of wading birds—mostly ibises, with a few herons and egrets scattered throughout.

Six ibises and a great egret standing in the branches of various trees. The ibises are much smaller in size to the egret. All the ibises are preening themselves whereas the egret in side profile is looking to the right.

Per Alan (@alan678.bsky.social), the #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #branchingout birds on branches, the alternative is #waders.

I believe the first photo (with an #egret and #ibises) fits both themes. The second is with boat-tailed #grackles. Both photos taken last week.

A Scarlet Ibis perched on a branch of a tree. The large tree leaves fill the photo frame. The ibis is bright red with a light colored long beak and facing the camera.

Per Alan, the #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #contrast birds that stand out against their background and the alt is #faceoff birds facing camera.

This Scarlet Ibis is a good candidate for both themes, I think.

Photo taken years ago at the Asheboro Zoo, Asheboro NC US.

Twelve white Ibises in a horizontal line across the foreground of the photo stand upright or bent over, their reflections and shadows beneath them in the shallow blue water of the Atlantic Ocean. At the top left are some condos, and in the distance is the Daytona Beach strip under a blue sky with some scattered mostly gray and white clouds.

Another image of ibis vs magpie. Magpies are known to be aggressive during breeding season, but I couldn't see any nest or babies nearby. Surprised that the ibis stood its ground and took that abuse for a full five minutes. #BirdingAustralia #BirdingMelbourne #ibises #magpies

At Braeside Park in Melbourne I witnessed a fight between a Straw-necked Ibis and an Australian Magpie. Usually when birds get into a tiff, it's over in seconds and they go their separate ways. But these two were going at it for five minutes. #BirdingAustralia #BirdingMelbourne #ibises #magpies

6 white Ibises with orange beaks and legs walk toward the ocean in shallow blue shore water, their reflections below them. In the mid-ground are several white Seagulls in more blue ocean water. Tide pools relecting (unseen) buildings and the white foam and blue water of small breaking waves make up the background.

🌍🌏🌎 Glossy Ibis (Plegadis falcinellus)

The Glossy Ibis is a medium-sized wading bird with a long, decurved bill and glossy feathers. From a distance, it appears dark, but in good light, its plumage shimmers with iridescent green, purple, and bronze. It has a widespread distribution, found in warm regions across Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas, favoring wetlands like marshes, swamps, and flooded fields. This is a highly social species that forages in flocks, often probing mud and shallow water for invertebrates. No subspecies are recognised. 2.5 Flash (Edited) 

Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1)

Fun fact: The tip of the Glossy Ibis's bill has special touch sensors that allow it to feel for prey like insects and crustaceans buried in the mud.

Two white and gray Ibises with long orange beaks and orange legs and feet stand in light gray sand. The closest one stands facing left, head turned toward me. The other stands facing me, looking around the other’s beak in my direction. Shallow blue ocean water fills the entire left side, and two blurred gulls stand in the sand on the edge of the water.

I can’t be certain, but I think these two were talking about me.

Seven white Ibises with long orange beaks, legs, and feet, stand, their shadows and reflections reflected  beneath them in the shallow, light blue water. Behind them is more shallow water on a wet, light blue shore. To the right is the tide rolling in and more distantly, the white foam of breaking waves on shore. In the background and top of the photo are white and gray condos of Daytona Beach Shores, Daytona Beach and Ormond Beach, and some of closest buildings’ reflections.

Parc Natural de l'Albufera de València, Spain 2022. - image: Michel Meijer

This photograph is from a photo series on rice cultivation in València's Albufera. This photo project falls under the broader theme of cultural landscapes. By using photos and text, I show what people do with the landscape they live in and its effects on the landscape. The documentaries are meant to be registrations, telling and showing what happens and how something functions. 

Human activities in the Albufera are at odds with nature in the area. Many animal and plant species are disappearing due to agriculture, fishing, hunting, industry, tourism and urbanisation. Since the people have realised that a clean living environment and high biodiversity also have great benefits for humans, they are committed to protecting the flora and fauna in the Albufera. As the interests of different parties are often conflicting, this is a difficult and long-term process. Nevertheless, people are increasingly managing to make their activities less harmful to the natural habitat.

A photo of a hadada ibis (Bostrychia hagedash) foraging in short, damp green groundcover with mud on its beak, with one leg lifted as it walks, facing to the left of frame. It is a grayish-brown ibis with iridescent green and purple feathers on its wings, a long, downward-curving red and black beak, and pale irises.

🌎 American white ibis (Eudocimus albus) 

The American white ibis is a medium-sized wading bird. Adults are entirely white, except for black wingtips (visible in flight), with a long, down-curved, reddish-orange bill and reddish-orange legs. Juveniles are mottled brown and white. They are found along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of the United States, south through Central America, the Caribbean, and into northern South America, inhabiting coastal marshes, wetlands, and mangrove swamps. Highly sociable, American white ibises feed and roost in large flocks, often probing shallow water for crustaceans and insects. 

Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1)
