Observation details
Plegadis ibis with red eyes and dark red facial skin. The bird was at some distance and backlit, but in the field suggested White-faced, not Glossy. Many photos taken from various angles for documentation, in hopes of getting a few definitive shots. Evaluating these photos at home, we considered the possibility of a hybrid (uncommon but not rare for these species), but a hybrid would have stronger pale borders along the facial skin and show less uniform dark red in that facial skin.
