The other day we came on a group of Spoonbills, and almost immediately they flew into the wood line, or further. The juvenile below landed over the salt marsh side of a nearby dike. He stayed up high long enough for me to get these images.
After a short while he moved to find his friends. A short time later we found the group again. The weather was cool and it’s now become cold (for us) so this might be the last Spoonbill shots for a few months. Sunny Florida calls them.



Fine parting shots!
Thanks 😁. The small group gave us some opportunities, Ellen caught a few down a trail I didn’t go. She seems to be getting along with the new gear fairly well, I kept out of the way 😆 just in case.
Beautiful light – the rosy tint really makes that Spoony radiant!
For some reason when the light is soft, aka dull, out there colors are great.
