      As a frequent visitor to CHile, the scarlet ibis are out of place.

      The scarlet ibis certainly is. From what I read during some quick research the Inca tern actually does occur on Chile's coast.

      That said, I guess the theme of the aviary might be a bit more of general South America rather than Chile specifically.
