Bird of the day: Roseate Spoonbill

Fun Facts

Spoonbills fly in long diagonal lines with their necks and legs completely stretched out.

It is thought that the roseate spoonbill receives its bright coloring from the pigments of the crustaceans that it eats.

When it walks, the roseate spoonbill swings its head back and forth in a sideways motion.
