Spot-breasted Ibis

Bostrychia rara (Rothschild, LW; Hartert, EJO; Kleinschmidt, O 1897)

The spot-breasted ibis is a small, forest-dwelling ibis found in African lowland forests and swampy forested areas. Its preference for dense rainforests in tropical Africa means that it is seldom seen and is vulnerable to deforestation. Source: Wikipedia
