One of the things I look forward to each spring is visiting the rookery at High Island where the stars of the show have to be the nesting Roseate Spoonbills. I would have never dreamed that I would have gone until the end of May before I would have a chance to visit these beauties but this has been one crazy spring. I’m so thankfully that I was eventually able to visit and the sanctuary definitely didn’t disappoint. This Roseate Spoonbill was one of the first birds I encountered during my visit. Seeing it made all the stresses and struggles just melt away and brought forth a lasting feeling of peace and joy.
