White Ibis
The white ibis may be one of the ugliest birds on the planet. It is often seen using its long, narrow beak to pick food out of rubbish bins. This action does not help its reputation.
Flocks of white ibises sometimes fly in v-formations. The entire flock will flap its wings at the same time and also glide at the same time.
