This is probably one of the most "exotic" species that breeds and raises young in the heart of Dallas. They're quite photogenic. Personally, I'm always entranced with that crystal blue eye...

I really like the detail in the photograph, especially around the face and the eye. The colors on the ibis’ face are quite dramatic.

Or, did you have a 10 ft. lens on your camera. Was this bird liking you or something? Or, did you have a 10 ft. lens on your camera.
