About These Birds

Red-naped Ibis

68 cm. Dark iridescent brown-black; bare red crown patch; white shoulder patch. Resident across South Asia from Pakistan to Myanmar in dry open woodland and cultivation near rivers. Near Threatened; declining due to habitat loss. Feeds on insects, frogs, and crabs in shallow water.

Roseate Spoonbill

The roseate spoonbill is the only spoonbill species in the Americas and one of the most striking wading birds in the Western Hemisphere. Like flamingos, their pink color comes from carotenoid pigments in their crustacean prey. Nearly hunted to extinction for their plumes in the 19th century, they have recovered substantially.
