Eremitibis - Geronticus eremita - Northern Bald Ibis or Waldrapp -  L'Ibis chauve

NF Photo 121111 at Tamri, Morocco

An ugly bird! I guess not even it´s mother can think it is sweet. But I don´t think that is the reason for it to be at the edge of extinction.

I´m sorry about the bad shots but the bird was so far away. This is shot with my 500mm lens. Still, I don´t think I have any better so I share it anyway. Am linking to a video I found on youtube because it is a really beautiful bird. And it is nice to see how it moves.

This bird has a very complicated family tree. Science can´t figure out how to separete them it seems. One species or several?

NF Photo 121111,  Chichaoua

High up on a lamp I saw my first Spotless Starling. It is all black, with red legs, so not an easy catch. But looking closely you can see shades of starling dots.  :)
