Spoonbills like to walk along and sift through marshes muddy water and bottom during feeding.
The big ‘Spoon’ is a handy tool.
They can gather up too much mud and water, so the big spit is part of their routine.

They sound like big kids 😊. Great shots!
😂😂, good point.
Very nice, Ted!
Thank you. I probably pay too much attention to the Spoonies, but such a unique animal I can’t help myself. Like searching out the big gators. Can’t help it.
