CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – A roseate spoonbill soars overhead against a deep blue sky covering NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Mature spoonbills feather the brilliant pink feathers with a white neck and beck and orange tails. Immature birds are white. The spoonbill is readily identified by the straight bill with a broad spatulate tip, which they use to obtain food by sweeping from side to side and scooping up whatever they encounter. They spend much of their time feeding on shrimps and fish in the shallow waters of the Florida Bay and Gulf of Mexico. Roseate spoonbills are a common sight throughout Kennedy, which shares a boundary with the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. Photo credit: NASA/Kenny Allen KSC-2009-1988
