Description
The scarlet ibis range is central America and northern south America, it's habitat tends to be tropical regions and rainforests.
Getting the shot of this attractive bird posed two problems, first was distance and the second was the mesh of the large aviary they were in. To be honest I'm only 50% happy with this shot but it was either that or forget the shot and don't bother. The rule of photography is always to get the best shot possible and save yourself a loads of post work.

Very strange and beautiful bird
The national bird of Trinidad, the birthplace of my insect hunting friend. A great colour!
Nice shot, I have not seen before.
Beautiful shot of a beautiful bird! I hadn't ever put it in words before, but your observation concerning a rule of photography is absolutely true! I can't count the times I've looked at a photo and thought, "If I had only done this instead...," or "If I had just taken it from this angle instead...," or...etc., etc. Great rule to click the shutter by! Excellent capture here, and I think you should give yourself the grace of liking it a great deal more than 50%. :)
We get the plane old white ones here!
Nice shot, considering the conditions. My rule of photography is "Always get the best shot possible & then make it even better with as much postwork as it takes". But then I actually enjoy postworking at least as much, if not more, than I do taking the original shot...
