The spoonbill (Platalea leucorodia) is a bird in the ibis and spoonbill family. The scientific name of the species was published in 1758.
The bird forages in wet meadows, near ditches, on mudflats and mudflats. Its food consists of fish, aquatic animals, snails, leeches, insects and worms, also occasionally plant parts.
Breeding occurs in colonies in marshes, floodplains, reed beds and other inaccessible places. Spoonbills often nest in riparian forests along rivers. A nest is made of rushes, aquatic plants and grass. The clutch consists of three to five dull white eggs with brown spots. The average life expectancy is four to five years.
The spoonbill has a length of about 80 to 93 cm.The spoonbill is immediately recognisable by its spatula-shaped widened black bill at the tip, which is yellow at the front. The bird is white with yellow/light orange patches. The extended head feathers form a bushy crest.
