Moving Up The Marsh, Wood Stork

Moving Up The Marsh, Wood Stork

This day there were several small flocks of Storks (later Spoonbills) around this long marsh. One by one the far groups were flying to me, joining the closer birds.

One of the great photo series of wildlife is a big Stork landing within a flock. I battled the high grass, taller than me, for open shots.

This day the grass won, not many dramatic crash landings.

    1. Given a choice they don’t stay together, still they feed together all the time. I have never seen them have a problem with each other. Spoonbill will snap at other Spoonbill, but never a Wood Stork. The species is not related in anyway either.
