Even Roseate Spoonbills have bad days. In this case an adult decided to grab hold of a juvenile by the leg. I’ve seen this before and I guess this is how they ‘argue’.

The older one had a good hold on the young one too.

As expected Jr. wailed a bit, flapped around, and took the hint.

Time to move on.
This is a rookery where the rules are a little different for a few months.
