Roseate spoonbills are the only species of spoonbill found in North America. While most of the population is found in South America there are small breeding populations in coastal regions of Central America, Mexico, the Caribbean and around the gulf coast in the United States. They can be found in freshwater or saltwater wet lands, where they move their head from side to side and use their spoon shaped bill to sift through the water and mud looking for small fish, aquatic insects and crustaceans.

Beautifully elegant birds..only small breeding populations.. sad..Michelle
Beautiful birds. I saw my first at Merritt Island in Florida. Just a pink shadow passing overhead early in the morning but quite a sight.
Love the picture of violet-green sparrow in flight! The chubby bird looks cute!
Nicely captured! I need to see one of these again!
