Ibisi je naziv za oko 26 vrsta dugonogih močvarnih ptica koje čine vlastitu potporodicu - Threskiornithinae, unutar porodice - Threskiornithidae u redu Pelikanke.[1]

Karakteristike

Ibisi imaju tijelo dugo od 55 do 75 cm.[1]Žive po svim toplim krajevima svijeta, osim po otocima Južnog Pacifika. Njihovo stanište su plitke lagune, jezera, uvale i močvare gdje vole gacati koristeći svoje vitke duge noge, u potrazi za malim ribama i mekušcima.[1]Kad lete izduže vrat, a noge zabace potpuno otraga, naizmjence mašu krilima i jedre. Ibisi obično žive u velikim kolonijama, podižući nizove čvrstih gnijezda po niskom grmlju ili drveću, u koje polažu tri do pet jaja bijele boje, kojiput išarana sa smeđim mrljama.[1]
