An Ibis Called Elvis

This is a story about a litte Australian White Ibis called Elvis. An egg was found on the ground and put into an incubator. The story shares his hatching, how he got his name, his fame in social media and him growing up, learning to preen, find his own food and build muscle strength for flying. His rehabilitation was all in the hands of a wildlife carer. It then talks about his eventual release at a wetland with other birds of his own kind, and how important it is to keep our wetlands clean for all that live in this environment.
