Black Necked Stork and Australian Pelican (Ephippiorhynchus asiaticus)

As I was walking back towards the car, the female Black Necked Stork, flew and landed near an Australian Pelican. She Started to flap her wings and clacks her bill. The pelican was all tensed up. The Male Black Necked Stork flew over and join his partner. I told myself, if there is going to be a fight for territory or fish, I am not going to miss it! I am a wildlife paparazzi.
