Golden Spoonbills
Sharon
The golden spoonbill lives along the river banks of the Chunky River in the Emerald Forest.
These birds wade in the weeds along the river eating the golden minnows which give them their golden color. They are also known to eat frogs, crayfish, and aquatic insects.
A fully grown adult can be 40 inches tall (101 cm) with a wingspan of 50 inches (127 cm). These birds nest in the cypress trees along the Chunky River.
There are only about forty of these birds living in the forest which means they are on the endangered species list. Warrior Kathleen and the Jadeites work hard to make sure they are not stolen and sold on the open market.
The woodland fairies who take care of the Cypress trees and have the last name of Cypress also help take care of the golden spoonbill birds.
