I think discussion of range could be improved. eBird shows this map: [1] which shows that it also is widely found on the west coast of Mexico, and vagrant records have also been confirmed in Kansas, New Mexico, Arizona, and Southern California. Cazort ( talk) 20:02, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
seriously, there is no explanation of why they are pink? is it the crustaceans they feed on like flamingos? or is it natural coloring? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.238.0.124 ( talk) 13:46, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
The article says that it is sometimes known as its own genus (Bruh). My references state that this is not correct. It is sometimes known as its own genus (ajaia), making it ajaia ajaja. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.3.123.197 ( talk) 06:42, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
1886-1910 reference books list the Roseate Spoonbill as Ajaja ajaja. 1910-2002 refer to it as Ajaia ajaja. 2002-Present is Platalea ajaja to represent its formal placement in the spoonbill genus. Ajaja ajaja is correct, but a bit antiquated. Ajaia ajaja is the same thing, just with updated spelling. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.100.133.161 ( talk) 23:06, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
Page header says this is an amphibian. It should be changed to bird. Jan.danielstrautner ( talk) 12:55, 19 August 2018 (UTC)
I have found no source so far confirming the extinction of this species. I do however, have a reliable source stating that this species has the status of "Least Concern": https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/22697574/93621961
I have also seen photographs of this bird nesting that were taken in the summer of this year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.229.92.200 ( talk) 03:45, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
As noted the species is common and widespread, it is not extinct. All references to it on the page should be reverted. CanadianCodhead ( talk) 21:23, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
This is nice. 2600:1017:B004:4C95:B472:E105:933:23AD ( talk) 19:34, 10 April 2022 (UTC)
Hi folks, I just edited the article a bit, and noticed there were conflicting uses of British/American English spellings for words like color/colour, behavior/behaviour, mollusk/mollusc. I standardized all instances I found to American English, but I know other bird pages I've worked on prefer British English.
I don't mind either way, so please feel free to change, but figured it was something to be aware of moving forward.
