The Nest
Have you ever asked your parents where do babies come from, and
they told you the story about how the stork dropped the babies
off to parents? Well this is a little white lie your parents
told you when you
were
young, but they forgot one key detail. What species of stork was
it? If you grew up in Sub-Saharan Africa then your parents may
have told you it was the magnificent saddle-billed stork. The saddle-billed stork or Ephippiorhynchus senegalensis,
which ever you prefer, is considered one of the most colorful
storks. Find out where it fits in with other birds in the
Classification section.
