Animals tend to appear in the strangest places when we least expect them. While some are a welcome sight, others may shock us with their presence and leave us scratching our heads wondering, “Huh?”
Recently, however, one bird provoked both responses in locals after being spotted at a nature reserve in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The bird in question is a Roseate Spoonbill, which is normally found in warmer climates in the south, typically near the Gulf of Mexico.is a large- to medium-sized waterbird with a sizeable bill shaped like a spoon, hence its name. They are pale pink in color and have bright pink shoulders with a yellow head.
Wisconsin birder Dexter Patterson was one of the lucky few to see the Spoonbill, and shared his excitement via a Twitter post accompanied by some stunning images. Today was an unforgettable day! Spotted the first Roseate Spoonbill in over 150 years in Wisconsin with fellow birders! 😱 Such a rare visitor to the Badger State! Respectfully cropped images to cherish this incredible encounter.
