Spoonbills at Snettisham

Great excitement to see a Spoobill very close at Snettisham even if it was asleep only waking occasionally. Later, an adult flew in and immediately the youngster started begging for food. Eventually, the adult allowed the young spoonbill to put its beak right inside the gullet and retrieve food. It continued to beg but the adult flew off to join other spoonbills (9 in all) and it followed. Not the easiest to photograph as difficult lighting with the sun coming out occasionally but a great sightings.
