White Ibis with Crayfish

This White Ibis at Brazos Bend State Park, Texas, USA, has obtained a sizeable meal in the form of a Crayfish. That is the largest component of the diet of the species, but these birds also catch small fish and eat aquatic insects. White Ibis do not see their prey underwater, but rely on touch to locate it.
