Colin Mulvogue's Ibis

This bird was photographed and appears on Birdline Victoria. It is too white 
for a
Strawneck and has too much dark plumage for a White Ibis. An interesting 
sighting.
I am inclined to believe that it is a Straw-necked/White Ibis hybrid. I 
understand that
things get confused in large nesting colonies where both species are present.
