The Smith Oaks Rookery on High Island, TX was filled with Great Egrets, Snowy Egrets, Double-Crested Cormorants, and Roseate Spoonbills who were all competing for nesting space and nesting materials. This Roseate Spoonbill flies past nests in the rookery in search of its own nest or perhaps nesting materials. The white and pink blobs in the background are nesting Egrets and nesting Spoonbills.
