Vantage point for Spoonbills, Okavango Delta, Botswana.

3 spoonbills find that the top branches of a tree make a good vantage point.   This shot was taken moments after the “Egret Landing” shot which I posted recently.   The tree had several spoonbills and egrets perched in it,  but I liked the way these three birds lined up and so chose to concentrate on them.
