A group of Spoonbills in the shallow water

All spoonbills have large, flat, spatulate bills and feed by wading through shallow water, sweeping the partly opened bill from side to side. It always looks funny when there is a group of spoonbills wading, sometimes they do even synchronize their movements in the water. Since today, I only found Spoonbills at Lake Neusiedler and it is probably the only place where you can find them in Austria. There are some spots in the Czech Republic. I think these are very beautiful birds and every time I see them I am very happy.

I hope this summer I will see them once again, but I still don't know yet when I will visit Lake Neusiedler again this summer for some wildlife photography, because the wetlands of the Inn River are a lot closer and it doesn't take so long to drive there, and the Inn River is also a very interesting Bird paradise.
