A decent size group of Spoonbills, better yet they were spaced just right for a wide image.

A Great Egret and Black-necked Stilt in the background added even more to the shot.
An early day shot, but certainly not sunrise.
I find four different species in this group.
The easy one is the Snowy Egrets, look at the attitude. There are also Black-necked Stilts, Yellowlegs, and a Willett.
Above, I added the last shot after the article was finished…
Looking close you will find a Glossy Ibis. Hint; his head is only visible and underneath a Snowy LOL.
Taken in an old rice field, Donnelley wildlife area.
This spot has always been a marsh, though some parts were plantation rice fields. Later it was a large private reserve for a wealthy northern industrialist, and finally part of the Lowcountry state wildlife management areas.
I guess the only animal in this marsh longer than the Egret, Alligators.
