Not a terribly good image, but more of a record that we saw this spoonbill feeding in the estuary yesterday. It didn't come very close, so this is a very cropped image. I do like that you can see water droplets from its open bill as it sorts and swallows its food. Spoonbills are slowly becoming a bit more common in the Manukau Harbour, and there are quite a few residing near Ambury Park, where we often camp.
@brigette Yes - depending on the tide as to where they are. I saw a bunch of them on the rocks near the motorway by the Onehunga foreshore the other day.
