About These Birds

Bare-faced Ibis

The Bare-faced Ibis is a wading bird of the family Threskiornithidae found in open wetlands, flooded grasslands, and agricultural areas across South America. Weighing about 546.5g with a wingspan of 53.1cm, it has a distinctive bare reddish face and a long curved bill. It probes mud and shallow water for invertebrates, fish, and amphibians.

Rosalöffler

Der Rosalöffler ist die einzige Löfflerart Amerikas und einer der auffälligsten Watvögel der westlichen Hemisphäre. Wie bei Flamingos stammt seine rosa Farbe von Carotinoid-Pigmenten aus seiner Beute an Krebstieren. Im 19. Jahrhundert wegen seiner Federn fast bis zur Ausrottung bejagt, haben sich die Bestände seither erheblich erholt.
