The red pigment on the bird’s #feathers and #eye are in the crustaceans they feed on.

The #Merritt Island National #Wildlife Refuge is home to many species of birds, including the dramatically-colored #Roseate #Spoonbill, named after their bright #pink color.
Like in flamingos, this coloration is a result of compounds in some crustaceans in their diet.

A group of Roseate Spoonbills flying over the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refugee.
Their bright #pink feathers make them very clear against the white #clouds and blue #sky.
#RoseateSpoonbills gain their pink coloration from eating a certain crustacean containing a pigment. Flamingos gain the color from the same process.
