A (European) Spoonbill - Platalea leucorodia - Marshside RSPB Reserve, Southport, Lancashire, July 10th. 2023.
An adult in breeding plumage, presumably one of the pair that have raised two young locally this summer. Fishing perhaps better on the distant "Polly's Pool".
Some slow motion clips about 40% normal speed near the end.
