Royal Spoonbill – Platalea regia

Royal Spoonbills (Platalea regia) are strikingly beautiful birds found across most of Australia as well as in New Zealand, New Caledonia, East Timor and parts of Indonesia and New Guinea. The species has an unusual feeding strategy. They catch small fish, crustaceans, crabs, insects and frogs by slowly sweeping their open spoon-shaped bills in an arc through shallow water. When the sensitive pads on the inside of the bill sense food it snaps closed, trapping the prey, which is then tossed down the throat.
