Stunning colour Yasser. If these flew in formation flocks as our white ibis do in Australia it would look like a spectacular flying sunset. Is the story behind their colouring similar to that of pink Flamingo?
I am not sure if it's the lighting, but this one looks more Orange than Red.
I recently spotted one in Brazil and had the same reaction as you! http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/2597007
