Angry looking White Ibis, Fort De Soto County Park, Pinellas County, FloridaAngry looking White Ibis – Nikon D200, handheld, f8, 1/640, ISO 200, Nikkor 80-400mm VR at 400mm, natural light

I photographed this White Ibis as it searched for prey along the Gulf of Mexico in Florida a few years ago. I have taken photos of hundreds of White Ibis (Eudocimus albus) in Florida and this is the only one I have where the Ibis looks like it could be an aggressive bird.

I think it is great to see a bird with sea blue eyes feeding along a shoreline with water nearly of the same hue.
