The Shoebill stork with long, lanky blue-gray legs that match its blue-grey feathers, stands almost 55 inches above the swampland mud that resides in. The Whalehead or Shoebill derives it’s name from the enormous shoe-like bill. This bird is rare and rapidly going extinct, with a population said to be less than 5000 in the wild. These birds live in large tropical east African swamps from South Sudan to Zambia.Via: https://twitter.com/samuelmmiller Spread the love Category: Animals Travel & Tourism Zambia Submitted by: 0:17 About The Author Emmanuel Post a Comment Cancel reply Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
