This bird is an Ibis Stork, some times also referred to as the Yellow-billed Stork. When standing, they can reach up to 1 meter in height, so the very long yellow bill is allows it to still reach into the water while walking (this is how to hunts for fish).

It's another shot taken during my trip with Denosha and Veloran to the Jurong Bird Park in Singapore - and thanks to them for lending me their very excellent Canon 300mm f/4 IS lens (as you can see, it's tack sharp!).

Just beautiful. The red and gold are so rich.
