  1. Another interesting bird. The in-flight photo is especially great.

  2. I love Wood Storks! I feel very lucky that we see them quite frequently where we live now. I am not totally used to them, though. When I see them I usually go through a thought process like "white ibis? no... sandhill crane? no... great egret? no... Oh! Wood Stork!" :D Hopefully some day Wood Stork will be the first thought, haha!

  7. No bird, in my opinion, has a more soulful face than the Woodstork period. Great catches!

  8. An ugly and powerful looking bird. You captured him/her quite well!

  9. Storks are such funny bird, I love them all. There are so many different ones. These are particularly handsome and so well captured.

I love comments so please write something. I usually responds to everyone on their own blogs. But nowadays I often find it impossible to comment on many blogs or on Google+. Often the word verifications is unreadable. And after three times I give up. Other times the systems seems to think I am a spammer. Lots of bloggers loose comments that way. :( So, if you don´t see me comment on your blog that is the reason.
