Eudocimus albus

White Ibis

Scneesichler

The White Ibis uses its long, sensitive bill to search for prey by touch rather than by sight. It moves through the water slowly, periodically stopping to probe its bill under vegetation or down a crustacean burrow. It feeds on a variety of crustaceans, insects, amphibians, small snakes and fish. Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge, High Island, Texas, USA
