Roseate Spoonbill, St. Augustine Alligator Farm wild bird rookery, Florida

Since I can not get out for new pics this weekend, we will drop back to my April trip to St. Augustine, Florida and the St. Augustine Alligator Farm wild bird rookery for this shot of a Roseate Spoonbill gathering nest materials. This Palm litter was clearly more than the bird could handle, and eventually it dropped it and went in search of something smaller. It did however give us a real show as it attempted to tame the banner in the wind from its tree-top perch. 🙂 Gotta love the pink!
