No matter how much information I read on this fascinating bird, it can't beat the fact that this is a gorgeous photograph!

Wonderful shot of this unusual stork! Love the soft feel of the grasses! Magnificent Roby!

A superb capture Roby while Cmolsen2002 is quite right regarding it being a Stork this is in fact a Saddle-billed Stork which is far more colourful and has the give away yellow saddle on its beak

Fantastic capture xx

fantastic colors, light and perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

outstanding work.. i love the color

Great shot, really impressive...!!!

Impactante pajarraco Roberto, para mi es una especie de Marabú (pajarraco africano creo) podes ver uno aqui: http://www.mtholyoke.edu/courses/dvanhand/2003deutsch201/marabu.jpg Si es un Marabú debe andar de parranda porque tiene unos colores impresionantes. Te cuento como curiosidad que El Marabú fue uno de los más importantes cabarets que tuvo Buenos Aires. El "Marabú" fue el símbolo de la época de oro del tango. Lo fundó el español Jorge Salas en 1935 y tuvo su momento de gloria durante la década del 40, cuando las grandes orquestas de tango tenían su cita obligada allí. Juan DArienzo, Carlos Di Sarli y otros tangueros de ley hacían bailar a los parroquianos hasta las cuatro de la mañana. Todos ellos tenían sus mesas especiales. Por allí pasaron figuras como Enrique Santos Discépolo, Homero Manzi y Aníbal Troilo, entre otros grandes.

excellent capture!!

Beautiful capture of this colorful bird!

Roby, this is a beautiful image of this colorful stork. I think he was posing for you so you could show off his colorful bill.

I think it is a stork and I find it wery beautiful and far from ugly. You captured it so nicely, as you always do. Splendid shot, my friend. :)
