Description
Fishing The Flats by HH Photography of Florida.
On a sunny, late spring afternoon, a lone Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) joins a flock of colorful Roseate Spoonbills (Platalea ajaja) to forage the grass flats together in the shallow waters of low tide in Sarasota Bay. April and May is peak breeding season for the Roseates here in central Florida ... hence, the intensified red and pink plumage of these beautiful birds. Photographed on the Florida Gulf coast.
