Ibis with a Destination.


This is the first day of the thirty day challenge.  This ibis knows where he is going.  His posture definitely gives him an attitude.  These birds are a little bigger than a pelican.  most of them are snowy white, and are often found at the shore of the gulf.  They have very distinctive curved beaks and orange legs to match.

They can often be found in other places, like parking lots, in neighborhoods, but always close to water. Many times they roam around in groups.  Blue eyes are another feature.  Ibis may be white but the colored parts make them all the more fun to observe.

Looking at this painting I will probably tweak it a little and pop it in a frame for next week's open house at Arts on Fire.
