White ibis — size comparison — facts and sources
The white ibis feeds in wetlands, damp meadows and shallow shores of the Americas and Caribbean. Its long curved bill probes soft substrate, detecting crustaceans and other small animals in sediment through touch.
It often feeds in groups. Breeding colonies occupy vegetation above water, from which adults visit shared feeding grounds.
