WC 530-Anything Good?
by Miro Susta
One more contribution to this week subject. This time straw-necked ibis checking the public rubbish bin in Causarina, NSW, Australia. Straw-necked Ibises are found throughout Australia, except parts of Western Australia, South Australia, and south-west Tasmania. They are most abundant on the australian east coast. Found around shallow freshwater wetlands, cultivated pastures, edges of swamps and lagoons, wet or dry grasslands and also in town parks with water ponds. They tend to avoid arid and saltwater areas, and coastal mudflats. They are extremely nomadic, and are constantly on the move searching for suitable habitats.

This is a terrific example of wildlife in an urban setting. I'd wish to see more separation between the ibis' head and the pole.
