Spoonbills are a genus of large wading birds with spoon-shaped bills. Alas, none of the species are found around the Lake.
What we do have is a spoonbill in morphology, if not in name: the Northern Shoveler.
Yet, I have just photographed another one: the exceedingly rare Spoonbill Crow.
A flock of Northern Shovelers display their spoon-shaped bills.
Today, the exceedingly rare Spoonbill Crow flew past me. (Sorry, I couldn’t help myself.)
I refuse to laugh at this. I happen to like to spoon, myself.
Right! good one, Alistair!
