These were taken at a zoo, but I have seen Roseate Spoonbills fairly often around the wetlands here on the west coast of Fl. I took the one in the water, using my D-Rebel and 75-300 mm IS. I like it because I accidentally caught water dripping from its beak. My wife took the other with our old Sony Mavica. I think it is the better shot.

Pretty cool Sparker.


My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.

Crystal clear!

So when's your wife going to join the forum? That's a nice shot of hers.

My son is looking with me. He wonders if you could train one of these birds to play ping pong.:)

Neat capture of the water drop just coming off the bill and the one hitting the water.
