Glossy Ibis

Plegadis falcinellus

Description:

Finally photographed glossy ibis in flight...Very beautiful iridescent wings it had...Glossy ibises undertake dispersal movements after breeding and are very nomadic. The more northerly populations are fully migratory and travel on a broad front, for example across the Sahara Desert. Populations in temperate regions breed during the local spring, while tropical populations nest to coincide with the rainy season.
