Sometimes you get the right angle, this was one of them.
A little distance either way and I would have had branches and palms in the shot.
Their feet and knees work best while wading through water, some how they make do and nest in trees anyway.

They do look a bit ungainly but beautiful nonetheless😊 Wonderful shots!
Thanks. Most of these big birds are a little clumsy but graceful n flight or wading through the waters.
