As the lores or "face" is black, though it's not clearly shown on the photo.   Gary Logged carmen BBS Member BBS God Life is Simple.

It doesn't have any extensive black facial skin. « Last Edit: Nov 4th, 2004, 6:04pm by carmen » Logged pelican BBS Member BBS Junior Member I love bird watching!     Gender: Posts: 15 Re: Please help identify « Reply #3 on: Nov 4th, 2004, 8:47pm » Quote Modify As the pic. shown, the lore of the bird have a yellow spot which make it look like a Eurasian Spoonbill.

Firstly, Black-faced Spoonbill also has yellow spot on its lores, you can't rule out BFS by just this yellow spot. Also, if the photo can't show the color of the lores clearly, though I see it black, you can see the "chin" area just below the eye is black. In Eurasian Spoonbill the blackish area won't extend to the chin. So, I still think it's a Black-faced Spoonbill.     Gary Logged Yat-tung YU BBS Moderator BBS Member BBS God I love bird watching!     Gender: Posts: 133 Re: Please help identify « Reply #5 on: Nov 5th, 2004, 2:19am » Quote Modify I agree with Gary. Also, I think the bill is too short in proportion for an Eurasian Spoonbill.
