Thank you very much! Its bill seems to be black in some picture， is this due to mud or other reason? Author: ajohn Time: 7/07/2015 10:02
Adults get a blacker bill during the breeding season. I think your second photo (with a very pink bill) is a juvenile, and the others are adults. Author: xiang88 Time: 7/07/2015 15:44
