roseate spoonbill in Wakodahatchee Wetlands

TODAY'S PHOTO -
a roseate spoonbill in Wakodahatchee Wetlands. The excitement of this morning's walk in was a visiting spoonbill, a bird rarely seen in Wakodahatchee.
I share it mainly for it's pink color to set the week up to be a loving, caring one for all.

Note - The head in the bottom right was not from a second bird there. Rather it's inset from from another photo so that you can see the "spoon bill." It was fascinating to watch the bird "sweep" back and forth, underneath the surface of the water, gathering it's food.

READER COMMENTS ON THE LAST ISSUE - Issue 97
"Your picture here: 3 Stilts and Mom, was quite appropriate for this weekend being it's Mother's Day.

Reminds me we aren't the only species on Earth that gets to celebrate this day."
Judith Traymayne-Barth, agoodread.com

Belated Mother's Day wishes to all who celebrated.

"Sheila, There are some lessons to be learned from that baby!" Noelle Randall.

When asked to elaborate on the lessons she saw, Noelle responded,
"The lesson I get from looking at the picture, is how vulnerable and tentative the baby is as he or she takes its first step. Kind of how Julie might feel as she watches us put our toes in the water."

Julie is Julie Jordan Scott, coach and teleclass leader who has a new session of "How to Lead Teleclasses and Teleseminars that Change Lives" starting tomorrow, Tuesday, May 10th.
