Sacred Ibis


I saw lots of birds in the Botanical Gardens in Sydney, also these sacred ibises. We have them also around Lake Claremont. They look like they've burned there heads in a big fire and went on breeding. The wrinkled necks show pink spots when stretched... Some of them look pretty scruffy, the white coat is dirty grey and they need to scrach themselves a lot.
