  • It is not he Treskiornis aethiopicus but Threskiornis molucca, The Australian White Ibis. T. aethiopicus ahs a black tail and a more robust beak also. Think the black featherips on the wing are also characteristic of T. molucca. Like the picm especialy the black tips on the wingfeathers.

  • I'm going to pass-out before I finsh this album. What a beaut of a bird - beautifically captured on film WITH nesting material! I'm improving on identifying Lighthouses (though Marge caught me out on Buffalo, Great Lakes) and now even on birds! Ibis Beak my mind shouted! EUREKA!! Threskiornis aethiopicus (L. 90 cm.) - Sacred Ibis. In AFRIKAANS it has the very apt/suitable name SKOORSTEENVEER (Chimney-Sweep!) I like the effect of those black-ended wing feathers! Merci boucoup MATE!

  • Frankly, I'm not sure what kind of bird this is, I'd merely call it a 'big bird', but the photo of it gathering nesting material is fantastic.
