Rosette Spoonbill










Rosette Spoonbill

The rosette spoonbill is a beautiful bird found in southern Florida and further south to South America. The All About Birds website describes it as follows:

"A bizarre wading bird of the southern coasts, the Roseate Spoonbill uses its odd bill to strain small food items out of the water. Its bright pink coloring leads many Florida tourists to think they have seen a flamingo."

I tried to photograph it with its wings wide open because it really shows the pink colour.

Comments are welcome!
