Sensational Peter! Seems to be one of very few, if not the only shot of a mainland Africa Dwarf Olive Ibis in the worldwideweb. There a some pictures of the Sao Tome ssp. (or Species) Bostrychia (olivacea) bocagei, but your's is Bostrychia olivacea akleyorum.
Great, many thanks

WOW Peter!!!! What a great picture to get of this ibis... and it's a first for the Gallery too. I'll upload to Opus shortly.

Many thanks for sharing it with us.

... and thanks too, to Rudy for the subspecies information which I'll deal with properly later on.
