If his spoon beak was silver he could star in that old sitcom with Ricky Schroder.
I am dying to flick that sleepy out of his right eye.
I can’t help but bow down to that evil look he has going on.

*pokes a few airholes into an empty suitcase for the return trip….*

That little sandpiper is just adorable, but he’s not the only type of bird born with a spoon-shaped bill. Check out Spoonbill on Wikipedia: “Spoonbills are a group of large, long legged wading birds in the family Threskiornithidae, which also includes ibises.”
