He's a stunning colour isn't he Brian. What a joy they must be to watch.

A super picture you've taken of him my friend - very well done.
 
Incredible plumage color. A beautiful capture of this ibis in its habitat.
Thank you for your comment. Torturing animals is a felony. Now idea why this can happen.

Interesting to me is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarlet_(color)
"In the spectrum of visible light, and on the traditional color wheel, it is one-quarter of the way between red and orange, slightly less orange than vermilion."
