Ibises love food, and we know they’ll eat almost anything, but their most favourite foods include: insects and crabs and they’ve even worked out how to eat cane toads.

Did you know that the accepted plural of the ibis is ibises, the collective noun is a colony, and when in flight they are a wedge (because of the v shape they fly in)?

That one time I went to Egypt ... well, I scrapbooked my photos. Here's one of my favourite spreads featuring me on the right on top of Marvin the camel (the name I appointed my steed). Background images I cut from an Egyptian encyclopaedia.

On a trip to @australiazoo.bsky.social a few years ago, a friend and I saw this beautiful Australian glossy ibis. It’s so much smaller than the white ibis, but has that same signature long beak and slow, deliberate walk. #glossyibis #nativebird #australianwildlife #longbeaknobility #thenobleibis
