Description Subject: An Ibis.
Camera: Nikon D7000.
Location: Palm Beach Zoo (Animal is not captive!).
Date Taken: 04/30/11.
Comment: I love how certain people from the U.K. pronounce "Ibis", in a way that sounds like "Ibbiss", rather than "Eye-Biss".

Edit: This picture was taken at the zoo, but this Ibis was not one of the animals in captivity. White Ibis are a species native to Florida, and this one just happened to perch near us while at the zoo.

Ibis... those are EVERYWHERE in Florida. Every time I go to Busch Gardens, they swarm. o^o And yet I miss them. 3:

Fantastic shot, love the DOF! I bet he visits the zoo to steal food from the actual zoo animals

I'm sure he's an equal nuisance to the café patrons as well.
