Suddenly, a tourist in a pristine "I Love Sydney" t-shirt wandered past, eyes glued to a map on their phone. They stepped right into the bird's strike zone. In a blur of white feathers and a curved black beak, the Ibis didn't go for the tourist's bag. It went for the phone.
The bird didn't hesitate. It dropped the phone—clattering onto the concrete—and sprinted toward the potato with the speed of a prehistoric raptor.
That’s when he saw it: a White Ibis —better known to locals as a "bin chicken"—perched precariously on the rim of a nearby Council bin. This wasn't just any bin chicken. This one had a certain glint in its eye, a look that said it had survived three lockdowns and a hundred school lunch raids.
