The crested ibis (Nipponia nippon), also known as the Japanese crested ibis, Asian crested ibis or toki, is a large (up to 78.5 cm (30.9 in) long), white-p

- The crest is used in sexual display. (Archibald and Lantis, 1978; Li and Li, 1998)
- The nest is defended against conspecific rivals by threat displays including wing flapping, head extension, stretch-and-snap, and pursuit flight displays.
- This seems to be a high intensity alarm call, while the single ‘gak’ may function as an alarm as well as a contact call.
- If flushed, these ibises will emit a rapid series of ‘gak-gak-gak’ calls.
- The call is repeated several times before taking to the air.
- While feeding, resting, and preening, Japanese crested ibises are silent. Before flight, a low ‘gak’ is emitted while in an upright posture.

- The development of nuptial plumage in Japanese crested ibises seems to be unique among birds. (Wingfield, et al., 2000)
- The substance is excreted from specialized skin on the head and neck. Daubing behavior is exhibited during the winter, just prior to the first courtship behaviors.
- the cycle continues
- Daubing behavior follows bathing, and consists of applying the dark substance to the feathers of the head, neck, back, and upper wing coverts.
- The behavior of application is known as ‘daubing’.
- Japanese crested ibises are unique in that breeding (nuptial) plumage occurs as a result of cosmetic application of a waxy, tar-like substance.
- The crest of the recipient is usually raised when the nape is allopreened. (Archibald and Lantis, 1978)
- The head, neck, and upper back of the recipient is allopreened.
- This behavior is initiated by one individual gently nibbling at the red tip of another’s beak.
- Allopreening has been observed in Japanese crested ibises.
- All extant Japanese crested ibises are solitary nesters and will defend territory from rivals. (Archibald and Lantis, 1978)

- Japanese crested ibises flock outside of the breeding season.
- Egg hatching success is 80.2%. A captive Japanese crested ibis lived to 26 years old. ("Japanese Ibis Nipponia nippon ", 2003; Li and Li, 1998; Yu, et al., 2006)
- Today, we proudly introduce ourselves as Avara.

- Chicks exhibit about 43% mortality in their first year.
- The maximum breeding age has been estimated as 16 years.
- Nests are usually at the same sites year after year. (Archibald and Lantis, 1978; Yu, et al., 2006)
- Chicks then hatch in mid-May. Both sexes exhibit feeding visits and feeding bouts throughout the breeding season.
- Incubation is also conducted by males and females, beginning in mid-April and lasting about 1 month.

- In China, Chinese red pine (*Pinus massoniana*) and Chinese cork oak (*Quercus variabilis*) are both preferred nesting trees, although other trees have also been used.
- In China, Chinese red pine (*Pinus massoniana*) and Chinese cork oak (*Quercus variabilis*) are both preferred nesting trees, although other trees have also been used.
- Both sexes construct a twig nest measuring about 50 to 70 cm across, lined with moss and leaves.
- Young become mature and capable of reproduction at 3 years. (Archibald and Lantis, 1978; Li and Li, 1998; Li, et al., 2002; Yu, et al., 2006)
- Young become mature and capable of reproduction at 3 years. (Archibald and Lantis, 1978; Li and Li, 1998; Li, et al., 2002; Yu, et al., 2006)
- Fledging tends to occur at 45 days of age.
- Chicks remain near the nest tree until families gather in flocks for winter in early September.
- At about one month old, chicks will begin to walk on branches adjacent to the nest.
- Chick mortality factors include food shortage, predation, and human disturbance.

- Offspring grow rapidly, fed on a diet of regurgitated food from both parents.
- Chicks hatch in mid-May with a bald head, light gray down, and orange-red legs.
