In Real Life
The black-headed ibis is a species of bird that can be found in regions of southern Asia, including India, Bangladesh, Vietnam and southern China. It primarily resides in areas such as wetlands, marshes, rivers and lakes. Black-headed ibises typically feed in groups, both alongside coastlines and inland. Through probing and pecking, they take prey such as worms, fish and frogs.
The plumage of a black-headed ibis is primarily white, with orange marks on the undersides of its wings. Its head, neck and legs are featherless, exposing its black-colored skin. The ibis' eyes and long downcurved bill are likewise black.
This species tends to nest in colonies, after the monsoon's rainy season. Males court females through display flights and sparring. After mating, paired ibises usually build stick nests on trees nearby water, although they also nest on partially submerged shrubs. The male gathers sticks, whereas the female constructs the nest itself. She then lays 2-4 eggs, which are incubated over the next 23-25 days.
While there are few, if any, cases of predation on adults, young ibises often fall victim to house and jungle crows. Factors such as human disturbance, pollution, hunting and agricultural conversion have additionally contributed to a suspected decline of the overall ibis population. The species is, however, increasing in certain regions.
