White-faced ibis are year-round residents of California marshlands and muddy fields. While on the ground they probe for crustaceans with their long, curved sensitive beaks, and unless the sun is shining on their feathers, they are rather dull and unassuming looking. But given the right light, especially in flight, they shimmer with every color of the rainbow. They are truly one of the most gorgeous and colorful birds in the world.
