Hi Donald,Marian,Julie,KC,Eastwood and Mark,thank you very much for all your kind comments.
 
Bro, great shot and hope we can do something with the declining of this amazing species :)
 
Wow...nice shot for this rare stork!
In Thailand situation is a bit different...some captive birds including other large waterfowls like Painted Stork and Darter, escaped from the captivity and increase their number gradually.
