A group of Roseate Spoonbills flying over the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refugee.
Their bright #pink feathers make them very clear against the white #clouds and blue #sky.
#RoseateSpoonbills gain their pink coloration from eating a certain crustacean containing a pigment. Flamingos gain the color from the same process.
