Woodstork, Getting Ready to Roost!

Was actually checking out an eagles nest late this evening to see if the eagle would be coming around. Then all of a sudden, this guy started flying right towards me and landed up in a tree that was about 20 feet away. And as it landed, it forced off another Woodstork that was already up there, and I hadn't even noticed it.

Believe your Woodstorks are the first time I've ever seen that bird, what a good clear shot

Only a mother could love that, great capture and details though. Fav

That head looks like it's been carved from wood. Lovely shot.

@jgpittenger @annepann @milaniet @amyk @photographycrazy @pamknowler @koalagardens @ludwigsdiana @stevejacob Thanks everyone for all of your comment's, view's and fav's. Yeah, these guys are sure not very good looking for sure. They look a lot better in flight, as long as you don't have to look at the head. :-)
