Asian Openbill Stork

Anastomus oscitans

Description:

Large bird standing patiently by the lakeside in Ayutthaya. The tail feathers are black and the rest of the body is a dirty white. Legs are pink.

Habitat:

Lakeside (I saw a water monitor in the water). Ayutthaya is a large bustling town with the greenery-covered ruins as oases scattered throughout. https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/17...

Notes:

Did not really see the gap in the mandibles where they place snails and crush the snails...did see lots of Apple snail eggs though...so potentially, next generation of food. https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/91...
