🌍 Yellow-billed stork (Mycteria ibis) The yellow-billed stork is a striking medium-sized stork found across sub-Saharan Africa and Madagascar. It's easily identified by its bright yellow bill, mostly white plumage, and red face. They inhabit wetlands, floodplains, and rivers. These storks hunt by touch, wading through water and snapping their bills shut when they encounter prey like fish or crustaceans. They often gather in large flocks, particularly during breeding season, and can be seen nesting in trees near water sources. Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) 📷: Photo by KiekieKie via Pixabay FPCN
