Wood Stork

Not much time to bird besides my weekly banding jaunts. So, here is a Wood Stork near the house before dark.



Yep. Just a Wood Stork. I still flash back to trips heading home to our house in the Keys and Dad saying how rare it was to see them back in the 70's. Their numbers were so low that they were teetering on the brink. Now they have rebounded nicely and can be found all over Central Florida and elsewhere. Love them.
