This weekend was one of the rare times I've found a roseate spoonbill off by itself with no other spoonbills in sight.

Have fun,

Phil

Thanks. They are pretty neat looking, but as far as birds go kind of boring to watch. All they seem to do is eat, then get rid of what they ate and start all over again.:dunno

Thanks Stephen, I and my ego really appreciate your comment.

Are you located anywhere near Keller, Texas? I lived there for seven years, loved it, hated to leave. Texas is an awesome state!

Thanks Ric. I agree with your choice. That image gives a little insight into how spoonbills feed by "stirring-up" the water and seabed to get to their food source.
