About These Birds

Black-necked Stork

130–150 cm. Large black and white stork; massive black and pink bill; bare red facial skin. Resident from India to New Guinea and Australia in wetlands and floodplains. Endangered in Southeast Asia; Near Threatened overall. Feeds on fish, frogs, and snakes. Solitary, widely spaced nests in tall trees.

Mandschurenstorch

Der Mandschurenstorch ist eine der am stärksten gefährdeten Storchenarten; in freier Wildbahn leben noch weniger als 3.000 Individuen. Einst war er in ganz Ostasien weit verbreitet, ging jedoch durch die Trockenlegung von Feuchtgebieten und den Einsatz von Pestiziden dramatisch zurück. Wiederansiedlungsprogramme in Japan und Korea konnten bemerkenswerte Erfolge erzielen.
