Ibis

Only about 500 bald ibis birds, ancient Egyptian holy birds, are living free in the nature in the whole word. This bird belongs to the colony of about 28 pairs who are nesting in La Barca de Vejer in Spain. It was not at all easy to find them just now, because it's not nesting time. This small winter colony lived around a pond in a golf course, Montenmedio Golf Club, near Barca de Vejer.
