Wood storks are large, long-legged wading birds, about 5O inches tall, with a wingspan of 60 to 65 inches. The plumage is white except for black primaries and secondaries and a short black tail. The head and neck are largely unfeathered and dark gray in color. The bill is black, thick at the base, and slightly decurved. Immature birds are dingy gray and have a yellowish bill. Our only native stork in North America, a very large, heavy-billed bird that wades in the shallows of southern swamps. Flies with slow wingbeats, and flocks often soar very high on warm days. Young Wood Storks have noisy begging calls, but adults are almost silent except for hissing and bill clappering.

The marabou stork (Leptoptilos crumeniferus), also known as the African stork, is a stork species found in sub-Saharan Africa and is distributed south of the Sahara Desert. They inhabit wet and arid environments, including areas close to human habitation such as garbage dumps. African storks live in areas near rivers, lakes, swamps, grasslands and even human settlements. They are social, diurnal birds that fly slowly and heavily. They are sedentary and have a delicate, expandable pouch (throat pouch) under their neck used for courtship displays. Their diet consists primarily of carrion of various animals, but they also eat insects, fish, rodents, and birds.
