The Australian white ibis (Threskiornis moluccus) foraging in the grass in a Redland Bay, Queenland park. This is one of four species found in Australia, a wading bird of the ibis family, Threskiornithidae. White ibis have predominantly white plumage with a bare, black head, long downcurved bill and black legs. The Australian white ibis was once known as the Sacred ibis and is humourously referred to as a bin chicken, tip turkey or dumpster diver.
