Royal Spoonbills
The Royal Spoonbill is a large waterbird found in northern and eastern Australia. It is considered a rare nomadic visitor to Tasmania, however, a small flock has taken up residence at Tamar Island Wetlands just outside of Launceston.
I have seen these birds at the Wetlands on occasion, and I came upon them again on an early morning walk. I have also noticed that the flock appears to have increased in number.
After watching these birds for awhile, they got scared off by a white bellied sea eagle that was flying overhead. I was able to capture some footage of the spoonbills in flight as they flew right over me circling, before deciding it was safe to return to their foraging.
I don’t know about you, but I find watching these spoonbills to be very calming and relaxing.
Until next time,
Sue

Magnificent, stoic, but also a little bit clumsy looking, the spoonbill is always an interesting sight. I hadn't seen one in breeding plumage before yesterday.

The high stakes of life at the rookery. While roseate spoonbill 🪶 and snowy egret chicks grow up in their treetop nests, an alligator patrols the waters directly below.

A stitch in time saves nine
A roseate spoonbill carries nesting material back home in Orlando wetlands in Christmas, Florida, US. Male spoonbills are responsible for gathering sticks, while females build the bulky platform nests in colonies over water.

I've been counting birds on my bike work commute between Christchurch and Lincoln, NZ, since 2003. On Friday, I counted my *first ever* Kōtuku Ngutupapa, Royal Spoonbill, on the route.
It was feeding in a paddock that had been recently scraped clear preparing it for a housing subdivision, but in the meantime had filled with water after a heavy rain. There are also restored wetlands nearby that I hope was what attracted it in. Perhaps there will be more.

"Roseate Spoonbill in Shallow Water"
This juvenile was putting on a show, moving all about and sweeping its large spoon-shaped bill in the water. Every few seconds or so, it would stop and look directly at me.
