Its not often one gets so close to a Saddle-billed Stork. I have visited this hide in the Kruger National park on many occasions, and had never seen one there before. This is a female as she has the yellow eye. The male's eye is brown. In this, I like how we can see into the bill, and to see how large their throats are. She closed her nictitating membrane, so I have replaced the eye, and have extended the canvas slightly on the left.
