Title: species?

A plea more for identification than for comment on artistic merit, of which this rather aged shot has little. Taken in South Africa, a good few years ago.

I think it's an immature sacred ibis.

Dale is correct - this is a Sacred Ibis!

As common a bird as it is possible to find in South Africa!

Yep. A couple hours ago I had ten ibises wandering over my lawn. No kids with them, but this is an ibis kid.
