I Got My Spoonbill!

I had mentioned in my beginning Florida birds’ post series that there were two birds I wished the most to see and photograph while vacationing here.  One was the Sandhill Crane, which I fortunately lucked out with a memorable photo op session that I shared a few posts back.

The other was the Roseate Spoonbill.

Today, guess what I spotted off in a distant wetland?  You got it.  A lone Roseate Spoonbill!

The Roseate Spoonbill was so gorgeous with it’s different shades of vibrant pinks.  As I ran a series of shots, someone walked up to me, saw the Spoonbill, and got just as excited as I did!   🙂

I wish he had been closer, but I can’t complain, I got my wish.  I got my Spoonbill!
