The stork was marching up and down his lawn and shaking his wings at the visitors - don't know if he wanted to impress us or scare us away.
Taken with Canon 400D, 80-200mm 4.0-5.6 lens at 80mm, f/9.0, 1/1250 sec, ISO 400.

Looks pretty scary to me....I wouldn't turn my back on him..especially given the fact that's he's so clear and you did such a great job of capturing the essence and the physical being of this one...yikes..outta here ....

Maybe he's tired of carting all those babies around! Great capture of this guy showing fine details and good clarity. It does look like he's trying to impress you with those wide spread wings. Nice colours with those touches of red. Thanks Mia, for introducing Mr. Stork :))

I need to catch up on things so can't comment too much. But I love all of your fine images :)
