Roseate Spoonbill

 As we drove down highway 35 business between Rockport and Aransas Pass we were treated to the sight of a small flock of Roseate Spoonbills wading in the drainage ditch alongside the road.

We have never seen on before.  The Roseate Spoonbill is the only spoonbill found in North America.  Looking like a genetic mistake, they stand about 30 to 40 inches tall and a wing span of 50 to 53 inches.
