Glossy Ibis. This bird was almost brought to extinction last century due to their beautiful feathers for the European hat trade.
They have since made a great comeback.

Indeed, when the light hits just right, these birds are gorgeous. You captured this nicely.

Beautifully done, love that you caught the beautiful iridescence of the feathers.

They are great-looking birds when the sun catches them just right. Crawfish farmers hate them as they consume tons of the crawfish crop every year.
