Same here. The last picture is a spotting of a separate species,most likely a type of egret, as venusflytrap2000 points out for you below. Could you please place it in a separate spotting so that people can better appreciate the two separate species? Thanks again.

@Ravi, please remove the last image, as it is not a painted stork, rather an entirely different bird. It looks like a snowy egret but they're not found in India. Please remove it thanks!
