Juvenile Scarlet Ibis in the water cleaning itself. It is slowly turning red,

Adult Scarlet Ibis is in the water foraging shrimps and crabs.

The #ScarletIbis starts off as a brownish bird with a white chest and body, but then they change colour when there's sufficient food like shrimps and crabs, because that is where they get their red colour from. #EudocimusRuber #BirdsinLatin #Birds #Birding #BIrdphotography #Ibis
