The Green Ibis of South and Central America is the only bird in its genus. Although I have seen it several times in different countries, all of my half decent photos are from my first trip to Brazil. There are quite a lot of them in the Pantanal area but we also saw them down on the coast near Sao Paulo. The "green" is mostly an iridescence on the nape and wings but the legs and bill are also kind of greenish depending on the light.
