I see the stork took a break from delivering babies to pose for you! A beautiful capture. Excellent focus and composition. He really shows up well against that rock.

I suppose the stork is standing on a steep slope. Good clarity here Jimbob, the bird seems to be lost in thought!

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."

You've created a vivid composition Jimbob. Agree with the others, as storks are wonderful birds.
Thanks for this fine post, mate.

Nice shot Jim. Looks like the stork is wondering where it put its egg, the stones would hide one pretty well.

A fine looking stork capture, Jimbo. I think he might have dropped a delivery at the wrong house. He seams to be a bit confused by the look on his face. Nice work.

I really like this Jim. I like the way the stork stands out so well against the rocky background and |I like the contrasting colours on the stork; black, white and bright orange.

I love bird shots JimBob and this one's great. He's a beauty. Or is it a she? Looks a little disgruntled at the intrusion though!
