The Lineup

The Wood Storks have finally begun to arrive in significant numbers over the past week or so.

Here you can see many of them lined up against the far back edge of the marsh pond earlier this week. Wood storks are funny, they often hang in groups, but the layout of the group varies from a straight line as you see here, to a loosely organized circle.

Good to see the big guys back again though in any case.

Love the way you had the grasses (reeds?) on the bank pick up the colours on the wood storks! You clever man! I remember you mentioning composition to Lucy once. This is a perfect example!

  I just took advantage of their stork habit of standing in a straight line. 🙂
