That is a cool Ibis I'd like to see one day! I think you did a good job with exposure. Even though you may have given up a small amount of the whites on the far wing, you did great with the head of this beauty.

Nicely done for such a B&W contrast. Very interesting bird.
What are the red patches, plumage or skin?

Akos, Nice all around. I really like the exposed patches of skin under the wings. I would try a little selective sharpening of the head. Very interesting subject.

Thank you for the kind words!

Ilija, the red underwing patches are only apparent during the breeding season.
