***About Roseate Spoonbill: The roseate spoonbill, a wading bird native to the Americas, is immediately recognizable by its bright pink feathers and distinctive spatulate bill. Often found in marshes, mangroves, and wetlands, the spoonbill feeds on small fish and invertebrates, sweeping its bill through shallow water to catch food. Its color, varying from pale pink to vibrant magenta, derives from the carotenoids in its diet. Conservation efforts have been crucial in preserving this species, which faced threats from habitat loss and plume hunting in the early 20th century.
