An Amazing Bird I Found In Trinidad And Tobago

I was on a boat tour in Trinidad and Tobago when something bit my hand really, really hard. I looked down and saw this scarlet-colored bird that, to me, looked like a flamingo. The guide laughed and said that this was a rare bird called a Scarlet Ibis. It was so pretty but I stopped putting my hand over the rail when another one bit me about five seconds later.

My name is Violeta and I am an editor here at Bored Panda. I love reading memes for a living. It’s obviously much more than that, but I appreciate the variety of topics, information, and pics I get to see every day and share with the world! Those funny memes really make my day too.
Being born in the ’90s in post-Soviet Lithuania speaks more about me than I’d like to admit. I’m still learning about the world and myself, but I do love my friends, traveling, art, and my cat.
My favorite fact to share about myself is that I used to hide meatballs in my friend’s pockets at lunch so I could go play outside. I wish all those meatballs could find their way back to me someday.

Didn't just bite the hand or bite it hard but bit it really really hard, yet the person was still able to ask questions rather than screaming in pain and hopping up and down in discomfort!!!!!! Sounds like it was a nip at best!!!!
