Glimpse

Roseate Spoonbill foraging in the marsh alone. Its pink feathers with scarlet patches, ruby-red eyes, pale green head, red legs, orange tail and long bill shaped like a spoon make it stand out. In the photo only a tiny bit of the orange tail shows. Soon after I took this photo he quickly walked behind the tall bushes.
