FEATURES: This has a slender bird with white plumage shades of yellow between long neck and chest, which are particularly lively during the mating season. Is evident Long-billed spoonbill, specialized to scour the waters. The legs, as in other Ciconiformi are long so as to enable an agile shift in water. The spatula is 80-90 cm high, more than half represented by the body. The wingspan is 115-130 cm. The male is slightly larger than the female.
