Show Off

We had a few spoonbills out in the salt marsh this morning and they were quite active the entire time.

One in particular stood out because it looked like he was trying out a new dance routine by showing off some fancy footwork in among the oyster beds.

After the performance was concluded, he looked quite pleased with himself and appeared ready to accept the applause of the adoring crowd.

In truth, it was quite entertaining and I personally would love to see the show again some time!

  I think in that last shot he was giving me a look as if he was saying… “So, how did you like that? Pretty nice right?!?” 😀

My, aren’t I the clever one?! Swan Lake again, only instead of the dance of the White Swan, it was the dance of the Pink and White Spoonbill!

  They are multi-talented for sure! They should sell tickets to the next show!
