I'm really not sure. I found this spoonbill at Flamingo Gardens, which is a sanctuary for birds with issues. I'll have to ask some questions on my next visit.

that bird is either molting or is sick

Very good shot Dossy, and I would believe that it is molting.

Thanks Randy and Louie! I’m voting for molting!

Lots of birds molt in the spring so that would make sense. Great pictures BTW.
