Bench and Bin Chickens

Seen in a Sydney park, the birds near the bench are Australian White Ibis, generally known by the more unkind name of "Bin Chickens" because of their scavenging habit in cities. They are found across most of Australia, most commonly in the east.

Happy Bench Monday and have a good week,everyone.

Great looking birds and a lovely shot George. Their beaks seem perfectly shaped for scavenging, - easy to spear a chip or two!!! Their nickname made me laugh!!

HBM and have a good week ahead

Amazing, I've never seen "chickens" like this. In fact, they can dig around in bins with their long beaks... HBM George.
