As is often the case with a large gathering of birds as seen in my previous post, it can be hard to know which action to watch.

A flying Roseate Spoonbill always takes precedence.

Many of the birds, like this Great Blue Heron, were just standing around.

Finally the Roseate Spoonbill took a break from feeding. You can see he his young by the feathery fuzz on his head and those two-toned pink feathers on his rump.
