Colorful Fridays ....(Black Necked Storks)

Black necked storks are world travelers , migrate from middle of August to end of September wintering in tropical Africa and India .
Black necked stork birds are dressed in mainly three colors White , Black and Red .The black plumage shimmers with a lovely purple and green gloss.
The avian delights are dressed in amazing color combinations . I actually marvel at the vivid display of colors by nature .


Happy Birding ...

  1. How can one tell a black stork from a black neck stork. My search on the former led me to the latter, leaving a bit confused. :)

    Nice blog, btw. Hope you find more time to post more sightings.

  2. Thanks for pin pointing out.. this is actually "Black necked stork". The difference between the two lies in the plumage .Black necked stork has a bright white back and belly whereas the Black stork the plumage is primarily black except the lower belly ....
