Crescent Lake, FL: 2-25-18




Limpkin




The Limplin’s bill is uniquely adapted to foraging on apple snails. The closed bill has a gap just before the tip that makes the bill act like a pair of tweezers.







The tip itself is often curved slightly to the right so it can be slipped into the right-handed chamber of the snail.
