Yes, ours are called roseate spoonbills and they are very shy. You usually have to go deep into the bush to find them on secluded ponds or rivers. I've only seen one on my lake. The juveniles are all white but adults get that pink or redish tone to them.

Well, I've been to church and sang in the choir, cleaned and shocked the pool, deep watered the orchids, found the remote control, made the guacamole and cooled the beer. Let the game begin!
