Wood Stork

(Mycteria americana)

Description:

Whenever I visit Aransas NWR, I find it impossible to pass up Heron Flats without exploring its trails. During my spring visits in 2020 and 2021, I didn’t see any storks here. Yet on this August 2022 visit, I had the pleasure of some group flyovers, and some distant views of this lone individual foraging out on the marsh in the company of other waders.
