Ibis(es)


Ibises are social birds, moving as a flock.  (Or, more correctly, as a "congregation," a "colony," a "stand" or a "wedge" of ibises.)


This juvenile hung out by himself.  Ibises start life gray like this one and turn white as they mature.

  1. Love the top shot....for some reason it makes me think of that famous Beatles album cover where they are crossing the street 😉

  2. Fine Ibise photos. You caught them in action. I did not know what a group of Ibise was called before.

  3. That's a great capture of the "wedge of ibises" Glad they are (in the plural) called Ibi. Very cool photos.

  4. That first photo is a keeper. I think they have a graceful form.
