Lovely photo and well framed.
Thanks again for suggestion over the Orton Effect. I'm currently working to better understand when is applicable. I made a couple of sample that I'll post asap.

And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."

So he's the one who brings the babies. He looks all tuckered out. Fine shot, Jimbob. You took so many great shots at that zoo.

Clear sharp image of the stork Jimbob. He/She seens to be enjoying the sunshine. Has a day off perhaps?

Very good photo Jim. In the strong sunshine and a bird that is almost white, you have all the details in the picture. Good job.

A great shot of the Stork, Jimbo. It's a shame they don't deliver Beer & Pizza and not just babies. Nice shootin' cowboy.

It's a good looking bird. Do they still do that baby delivery business or have most of them retired? Nice shot.

Doesn't matter Jimbob, whether you are capturing butterflies, geese, herons, and so on. They all seem to pose willingly for you. Suppose your trick is that you hypnotize them first (in accordance with your, avie, lol) before taking your images.
Anyhow, well done again Pal!
Regards, Cornelius.

I really like how you did just the body of the stork in black and white and the rest in color. :) Oh, never mind. It is really a great photo with your usual top end editing.
