Went to see the "wayward" juvenile Roseate Spoonbill which was spotted in Buffalo and along the Buffalo River a couple of days ago. Hopefully it finds its way back south where it's normally found! Also got bonus looks at a first year Bald Eagle.

I hope it does too. An unusual sight in WNY. You captured how lovely it is fantastically. V

A first I thought you were on vacation in Florida. Upper New York state sure is a long way from home for a spoonbill. Do I see a fence in the background? Is some animal rescue group helping with his getting back home? If he stays without human assistance, he probably won't survive your Winters...

Such a beautiful bird, and how lucky you were to see him!

Or is it expanding its territory because of global warming? Just a thought.

Wow! What is it doing so far north!! Must have been blown off course... You got a great photo of it, but I hope it can make its way south soon.
