It is most often seen wading slowly in shallow waters, sweeping its bill from side to side to feed. Instead of searching for food by looking for it, the sensitive tip of the spoonbill\u2019s bill allows the bird to feel for its food instead. Their large spoon-shaped bills easily distinguish spoonbills from all other water birds.<\/p>\n<p>They often nest in colonies with other water birds, such as Ibises and Royal Spoonbills. It places its nest in high forks of trees over water, or in among reed beds, building a shallow, unlined platform of sticks, rushes and reeds.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6071\" alt=\"30\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lkcc.com.au\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/30.jpg\" width=\"536\" height=\"739\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Platalea flavipes) Length:\u00a0 90 cm Moderately Common The Yellow-billed Spoonbill is a large, white waterbird with a yellow face and&#8230; <a class=\"read_more_link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.lkcc.com.au\/cms\/about-lkcc\/the-birds-of-lake-karrinyup\/herons-egrets-ibis\/yellow-billed-spoonbill\/\"> Read More <i class=\"fa fa-angle-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5839,"parent":6234,"menu_order":108,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-5740","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Yellow-billed Spoonbill - Lake Karrinyup Country Club<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lkcc.com.au\/cms\/about-lkcc\/the-birds-of-lake-karrinyup\/herons-egrets-ibis\/yellow-billed-spoonbill\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Yellow-billed Spoonbill - Lake Karrinyup Country Club\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"(Platalea flavipes) Length:\u00a0 90 cm Moderately Common The Yellow-billed Spoonbill is a large, white waterbird with a yellow face and...
