Proud, constable, noble
The ibises are a group of long-legged wading birds in the family
Threskiornithidae. They all have long, down-curved bills, and usually feed as a
group, probing mud for food items, usually crustaceans. Most species nest in
trees, often with spoonbills or herons. The word ibis comes from Greek and
Latin, and probably from Ancient Egypt.
