A White Ibis in all his glory.

He doesn't turn white until his second year.

A crazy fact that I read is that once a male finds his mate, he will grab her head and shake it. She even might end up bleeding!

What a lovely surprise! 🥳
I came across a Yellow Warbler couple, where the male was feeding the female. 🥰
She was pretty noisy and he was pretty abiding, although he did seem to get annoyed. 🤣
