Very amazing bird. Uses the beak to rake the mud and follows a semi circle routine with beaks open. Keeps digging and eating.

I can imagine that, it is a very nice capture and I think both pictures are very special and hard to compare with one and other.
Thanks Tony. Actually I had put the third pic in the front, but the current No 1 is my hot favorite.
Wow, what a very nice series of this beautiful bird. Photo one is such a beuatiful scene while I love picture nr 3 becouse of his sharpness.
Uploaded one of my favorite pic of Spoonbills.
Yes it will be good practice for wildlife photography..!!
Yes indeed it is. Now was not a good time for spotters, but since I had some free time I grabbed the opportunity. Will be visiting again in December. Its very near to my native place where I keep travelling every month for work.
Wow...its famous bird sanctuary Nal Sarovar.
