WOW!
This must be the famous "Glossy Glossy Ibis".
Congratulations! Excellent shot!
Best wishes,

Thank you Gonçalo,
Out of 30+ shots of this bird (some of which were sharper than this) this was "the one" - nice full profile pose and the light was just perfect to capture that gorgeous iridescence of the plumage. This species can look very "drab" and uninteresting, but in the right light it is a beautiful bird.
Regards,
Colin

Very good Colin, 
The first time I saw this species was in Castro Marim aprox. 20 years ago, at that time they were very rare. Now we have hundreds of them here near Lisbon

Thank you Gonçalo, Pedro, António and Simon for your comments.
As stated above, this species is often overlooked or ignored as just a "dark bird", but when the light hits it properly it is a "feathered rainbow".
Best,
Colin
