Sacred Ibis- I posted one of these in flight a few weeks back - refer back for some interesting info about them and how the Ancient Egyptians revered them.

(sorry, this was actually taken with an A200 and Sony 75-300 len, but I'll have to get Sulamk to remind me how to change that stuff)

This is great. This bird looks so proud and content with himself. I still can't get my mind around how cool it would be to see such huge beautiful birds in the wild. I'm glad you are sharing them with us.
