Wish I could take a week off work solely to bask in wood stork roosting season, I could watch these little cotton fluff chicks for days. When I say I love spring this right here is why!!
"Our only native stork in North America, a very large, heavy-billed bird that wades in the shallows of southern swamps. Flies with slow wingbeats, and flocks often soar very high on warm days. Young Wood Storks have noisy begging calls, but adults are almost silent except for hissing and bill clappering. Florida populations have declined as water management there has become a more difficult problem."
