These #spoonbills must have flown in from a distance because they’ve been snoozing off and on all afternoon. #birds

A large pink roseate spoonbill is coming in for a landing.  Its feet dangle below it, and both wings are arched to slow down is it comes in for a landing.  Background is blurred brown woods mostly.

For today's #BirdOfTheDay, Rob has set the theme as #LargeBirdsInFlight

So here's a roseate spoonbill coming in for a landing out at the wetlands 😊

A roseate spoonbill doing a little grooming for today's #BirdOfTheDay. My understanding is they are mostly a South American bird but they migrate up into central Florida in winter to breed.

A Great Blue Heron flanked by a trio of Roseate Spoonbills at a pond in Lamar, TX. This part of Texas is suffering severe drought, so species gather together in the few places with freshwater. An alligator lurked nearby! 🥰🥰🥰 #Herons #Spoonbills #BirdsSeenin2026

Two birds sit side by side on the same bare tree branch.  On the left is a bright pink roseate spoonbill standing on one leg with its bill tucked under its wing, its eye peeking out from above.   On the right is a black and white anhinga with a bright turquoise surrounding its eye and feathers standing straight up on its head.

A large pink and white bird flies with its wings outstretched.  The left wing and head catches the sunlight and the right wing and body are in shadows.  Behind and under an anhinga and another spoonbill can be seen sitting on the tops of palm tree stumps.   More palms can be seen of the left.

Here's a roseate spoonbill I captured out at the Orlando wetlands earlier this month for #FlyDay.

It was in the running for #FavouriteOfTheMonth, can I have two favorites? 😁

As luck would have it, I would finally see some Roseate Spoonbills at a decent distance, but they all had their heads tucked in for a nap. Perhaps because they rest on only one leg, this one wobbled a bit, so I at least got a quick sight of its namesake, the spoonbill, before it tucked back into position. Captured along the 4800 ft boardwalk at South Padre Island Birding and Nature Center, the last day of February. Light painterly touches add to the reeds and water, only to remove/smooth some distractions.

Finally got back out to the Orlando Wetlands yesterday, and the spoonbills are out in force! And so are the photographers, I saw nearly as many of those 😁

The photo was all about the Roseate Spoonbills and their bright pink reflections, or so I thought. I was totally surprised by this young Night Heron as it strolled through the scene. This area in the wide open wetlands was the last place I would have imagined seeing a night heron.
