Résumé :	The Glossy Ibis Plegadis falcinellus was very rarely breeding in France until its settlement in Camargue in 2006, in a colony of ardeids. From then, the number of breeding pairs increased exponentially to reach 2,087 breeding pairs in 2017 distributed over ten colonies mainly in Camargue but also in others sites over the French Mediterranean coast. In parallel, breeding attempts occurred regularly in other regions, with some successes in Loire Atlantic on the Atlantic coast. Here we present some preliminary results on the ringing programme of chicks conducted in Camargue since 2006 and on the diet of the breeding birds. Finally, we discuss factors that influence the settlement of new colonies.
