I think this is a good example of a Spoonbill, a young one. He was underneath a roof of palms adult Spoonbills were nesting on. A thick canopy here so this was the best light I could get.
Juvenile Roseate Spoonbill
I can guess the bird is at least a year away from breeding.
He is so beautiful!
Thanks ππ for stopping by. Incredible birds, and certainly unique π
Well isnβt he lovely! What a beautiful fellow!
The young ones donβt have the wild neon colors, but I agree with you. Beautiful at this age.
Delightfully fluffy!
ππ, and pink.
