Battle of the Beaks

That's a wood stork in the back with the long sharp beak, and a roseate spoonbill in the front the long curved beak.  I spotted them fishing at the celery fields in Sarasota County.  I wonder which beak is more conducive for catching dinner.

I think I'm more of a long curved beak kinda person.

I like the one in the back, it looks like its wearing headphones.
