The Bare-faced Ibis occurs in South America and feeds on small animals such as beetles in wetlands.
It has glossy black plumage, a pink face and legs, and a long, down-curved bill.
In Venezuela’s Llanos, sampled birds ate beetles and mayflies in the dry season, and earthworms, mayflies, and beetles in the wet season.
It flies with its neck extended forwards.
Males and females look alike. Juveniles have darker legs than adults.
