Black-faced ibis (Theristicus melanopis)

This ibis lives in marshes, ponds, reed beds and open woodland, at altitudes of up to 3,000 m. It feeds on invertebrates. Its head and neck are tawny orange, with a reddish crown and a black mask around the eye and bill. Its long black bill is strongly curved. Its back is grey, its belly and tail are black, and its legs are pink. Here, it is perched on a wooden root, one leg folded.
