Roseate Spoonbill FlyBys

One of my favorite birds to photograph in Florida are Roseate Spoonbills. They are fun to photograph and watch them in flight. They are also a very large bird to help fill the frame and are very colorful. The images here are a series of 2 different Spoonbills that flew by me as I was photographing at this spot. The Featured Image was taken with a Canon 7D with a 400mm DO lens. As this Spoonbill was flying by another Spoonbill flew by going the other way so it was like a 2 in 1 series of images.

More Roseate Spoonbill images from our trip to Florida a few months ago. They are one of my favorite birds to photograph in Florida. They really stand out in the treetops and are fun to watch interacting with each other & other birds.

Roseate Spoonbill FlyBy

Here are a series of images of Roseate Spoonbills in flight. These are from a previous trip to Florida, but did not post them before. One of my favorite birds to photograph! Plus they are a Large and Colorful bird. Easier to fill the frame and you definitely see them coming! Also they are interesting to watch how they interact with each other in the tree tops. My next post will show some of those images. Being retired now I have time to go through my large backlog of past trips. These are all taken back then with a Canon 400mm f/4 DO lens on a Canon 7D (Full Frame FOV ~ 640mm)
