一抹粉红

A pair of roseate spoonbills add a pop of color to this image taken Sept. 13, 2005, in the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, northwest of Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Spoonbills like this female (left) and male duo inhabit areas of mangrove such as on the coasts of southern Florida and Texas. These birds feed on shrimps and fish in the shallow water, sweeping their bills from side to side.

This and other wildlife abound throughout Kennedy as it shares a boundary with the Wildlife Refuge, home to some of the nation’s rarest and most unusual species of wildlife. The wildlife refuge is a habitat for more than 310 species of birds, 25 mammals, 117 fishes and 65 amphibians and reptiles.

这张照片拍摄于2005年9月13日，在佛罗里达州肯尼迪航天中心西北的梅里特岛国家野生动物保护区，一对玫瑰色琵鹭为照片增添了一抹鲜艳的色彩。像这样的雌性琵鹭（左）和雄性琵鹭生活在红树林区，比如佛罗里达州南部和德克萨斯州的海岸。这些鸟以浅水中的虾和鱼为食，用喙左右扫荡。

这种野生动物和其他野生动物遍布肯尼迪，因为它与野生动物保护区接壤，野生动物保护区是美国一些最稀有和最不寻常的野生动物的家园。野生动物保护区是310多种鸟类、25种哺乳动物、117种鱼类和65种两栖动物和爬行动物的栖息地。
