Scarlet Ibis at Poznan Zoological Gardens (Eudocimus ruber; Ibis szkarlatny; Stare zoo w Poznaniu). A juvenile Scarlet Ibis is brown with a white belly and rump (intense pink in shade, completely scarlet adults, except for black tips on their wings). The extremely fantastic birds inhabit tropical, northern South America, mostly along the coastline and the islands of the Caribbean, and nest in trees, laying two to four pale green eggs with brown streaks. By the age of 2 years, the young ibises are transformed into their scarlet coloration. Birds in zoos in some cases lose a few of their color, because these birds get their bright color from the food they consume.
