The Green Ibis is 48-56 cm long and weighs 650-750 g; the female is smaller than the male. Breeding adults have glossy greenish-black bodies, pale green legs and bill, and grey bare facial skin patches. Juveniles are much duller, but can be distinguished from the similar Glossy Ibis by their bulkier shape, shorter legs and broader wings. This species, like other ibises, flies with neck outstretched. Its flight is heavy, with fewer glides and jerkier wingbeats than its relatives. More

Green Ibis is generally considered rare and local in Panama, more likely to be found on the Caribbean coast, although Carlos Bethancourt informs me he finds it somewhat regularly at Tocumen Marsh. Some uncertainty might arise from the modest difficulty of distinguishing this species from Glossy Ibis in the field. More
