Abdim's stork (ciconia abdimii) foraging in high yellow grass in kalahari landscape.
Khutse Game Reserve, Moreswa Pan, central kalahari, Botswana.
This image is not about the stork, but about the stork in its habitat. I liked the way it was foraging for scorpions and other insects in the high grass with so now and then its head coming up to check for danger.
