Roseate Spoonbill

[Louis Champan]

Just got back from a week in Florida, what a trip the weather could not have been better and the birds were cooperative for the most part. I really want to thank Bobby and Randy for pointing me in the right directions as to where I might find the more active places to shoot. Although, the places around both Viera and Merritt Island have changed considerable since I was last there 2014, they are still worth visiting.

Thanks very much Darrell, spoonies was one of the main reason for me going to Florida and I ran into a number of them.

Wow. I've shot over a thousand Spoonbills but I'd be proud of that first image. (Looks like Blackpoint) Great set and I'm stoked that you had such a good trip.

Such a compliment coming from you Bobby is very much appreciated, thank you very much. And yes, I had a superb visit, your directions helped me a bunch, sorry I didn't get a chance to call you since getting back.

Another "wow" here. The light makes the pink magical! Doesn't get any better than #3
