Wood Stork

mycteria americana

Description:

Wood Storks communicating with each other via clacking their bills. Sounds like boards of wood slapping together, wonder if thats where the name Wood Stork came from...? Very interesting to watch.

Habitat:

wetland

Notes:

A lot of wood storks around and visible in the slough lately, and many carrying twigs. For courtship and nesting...?
