Uploaded: April 04, 2010

Description

The adult roseate spoonbill's plumage is bright pink with red highlights. Like the flamingo, the spoonbill owes much of its pink coloration to pigments imparted by the crustaceans it eats. Some of these crustaceans feed on algae that give the spoonbill's feathers their rosy pink color.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
