From out of the 2010 "bin". Taken in November with Canon 50D, Canon 100-400mm. This Glossy Ibis was raising cane about something. I bagged him with his beak a flappin. Must be a male. Anybody know what kind of bird this is?

I don't see a phone next to his mouth, so you might be right about it being a male Owd Momma.
You can bet he is squawking about some women that done him wrong. He does take a nice photo if I might be so bold.
Good post.

A great capture of the squawkin' Ibis, Pat. Maybe he's afraid of hights.

Definitely an Ibis!....

Somehow, this reminds me of a certain 'person' who was always 'flapping' her gob in the back seat of my car, when driving her around!....

I think he's just smiling for the camera.

Great shot, Pat! I love the pose amid the foliage. Nicely captured!
