Spoonbill were moving up over the water to join a large flock feeding. While catching some in flight shots one bird flew right along my side of the marsh.
Not even sure how I pulled the lens back when I noticed him going by.
ACE Basin, South Carolina.
Awesome shot, Ted. I can never get enough of those bright pink spoonbills.
We never get tired of them either LOL. Temperature dropped and we had a slight frost so some may drop down to northern FL. but a good number will stick around.
Oh yeah… say that in another month if they do stay close LOL. Photos might be over kill by then 🙂
Great shot, Ted!
Thanks. It was a good day for Spoonbills LOL
Straight, strong, holding his neck a little bit up! That is one lucky and priceless moment, Ted!
They are not fast, but when close it sure seems like it LOL. Thanks.
