To me, it looks like an immature American wood stork, The legs and bill are a bit "heavy" for an ibis. https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Wood_Stork/id

It seems like a closer match would be a juvenile American White Ibis, though I haven't found many with the exact color pattern as yours. http://www.oiseaux-birds.com/card-american-white-ibis.html https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/White_Ibis/id
