"The American white ibis struts along the Florida coast and the Everglades like they own the region - and rightly so. You can see these proud and very territorial birds defending their nests and display sites with an intensity that suits them, lunging their long orange beaks at all intruders, foreign and domestic to the area. They snap bills, lunge, grab and bite their opponents' wings and heads."
"and they are, at 29-26, in the West's eighth playoff position, 4.5 games back of the sixth and final guaranteed playoff spot. Playing without Stephen Curry - who could return soon from a runner's knee injury - and Jimmy Butler - who is out for the year with a torn ACL - left them at a disadvantage in most matchups, but they have been scrapping and clawing to remain firmly in the mix without their stars."
American white ibis are territorial birds that defend nests and display sites aggressively, lunging with long orange beaks and snapping bills at intruders. Native American folklore calls the ibis the last to seek shelter before a hurricane and the first to emerge afterward. The Golden State Warriors have faced losses, trade-deadline uncertainty, and injuries, sitting 29-26 in the West's eighth playoff position. The team has missed Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler and has relied on collective, scrappy play to remain competitive. The Warriors ran 25-7 to beat Phoenix, rallied from 17 down versus Memphis, and pushed San Antonio before the All-Star break. Scoring has suffered without primary creators, while defense has stayed relatively stable.
