Eurasian Spoonbills (Platalea leucorodia)

Shot in a lake near Dharwar. First time I have seen them near here. Some of them appear to be teenagers. Had taken a few long distance shots last year at Gudavi Reserve along with other waders. So, this being the first shot from a reasonably close range, it is a lifer for me.
