As soon as I saw the name and the first triangle was pink, I knew. Absolutely loved this one. Spatulate just is the bill shape.

Very pretty. I had trouble getting started.

Mercy! I matched the general stats exactly, and this hamster is lying on the bottom of her cage panting.

This is exquisite..these little puzzles can be difficult!

I asked ChatGPT why this was called spatulated while in the distance I heard a sandhill crane whooping. Seriously.

SorePorcupine426118 Aug 2026 at 11:42 AM

Yeah, I know the answer is spoonbill, but I definitely heard a damn giant bird whooping in background while I was typing.

At first I thought it was an overhead view of a flamingo but realized that the beak shape was all wrong. Then that "ah-ha" moment for a roseate spoonbill. Lovely picture and fun to do.

Wow! I was thinking "bird," but the colors! It didn't seem flamingo-y, though. 🤔 I finished and pulled out to see what it was, and it was breathtakingly delicate and beautiful! Thanks to Mr and Mrs Chinchilla, I now know it's a roseate spoonbill! I think my new favorite bird! Perfection!

Who needs big puzzles when small and difficult as this is, is perfect!
