Congratulations Hazel, you have won a no-expenses paid "Day On The Bay" with Captain James Shadle, on the luxurious Hooptie Re-Deux!! Please contact him directly via PM to discuss scheduling and details. I would hold out for peak spoonbill season. :D

Congrats Hazel. Great stuff by all. Peak spoonbill season is usually in early March when the birds are in their brightest plumages.
