The World's Wild Side

those backward-bending knees are quite unique. my favorite wood stork shot ever

Great capture! I love the everglades and wood storks are some of the coolest birds there. I've seen this pose but wasn't able capture it as nicely as you've done.

It does look weird, the way his legs bend but if you look at other birds in the gallery, you'll notice they have the same anatomy. I think what makes this image unique is that he's actually sitting on his "knees" rather than laying on his stomach.

Neat shot, but is there something the matter with this bird; I've never seen one bend its legs this way?

very very beautiful

Very nice picture.
