These birds are wonderful as models, to me, because they remind me so much of their cousins who lived over 150 million years ago, the dinosaurs. I would guess that their long necks aided them with both fishing and with giving them the ability to stretch up higher to see what foes may be about.

This picture makes me smile. I've been spending a lot of time with my young grandchildren. The first thing I thought of when I was the bird was that it needed to go to the bathroom. I see that pose a lot with my 2 year old grandchildren.
