Look at this beautiful Roseate Spoonbill we saw out on tour. Some interesting facts about this beautiful bird:

Their bill can range from around 6-8 inches long - it helps catch small fish, crustaceans, and aquatic insects.

Their feathers are a distinctive pink and red color - the color comes from carotenoid pigments in the food they eat. Depending on age and breeding status, they can appear more pale or bright reddish.

They grow to about 32 inches tall with a wingspan approaching 50 inches.

They nest colonially in trees and mangroves, often alongside other wading birds. Breeding pairs build nests out of sticks high up, where the female lays 3-5 eggs.
