When the opportunity to hang out with Wood Storks comes along, I take it. Look at this beauty!
I hear people say they're ugly, but I think Wood Storks are beautiful. And they're really cool to watch. This group spent an afternoon by the side of a lake preening and enjoying the sun.
This one kept a close eye on me.
These birds are nearly as tall as me, so I can't help but be impressed with their presence.
I caught this stork flying with a fish (carp?) in its bill.
This is a different individual without a fish.
In flight, these birds are stunning with their long bill and legs, and huge black and white wings.
At sunset, I watched several storks drop in to spend the night. It's nice to know they're out there, silently watching over the wetlands.
