About These Birds
White Stork
白鹳（约3.5公斤）是欧洲最具标志性的鸟类之一，具有白色羽毛、红色喙和腿，以及黑色飞羽。在烟囱、树木和人工平台上筑造大型巢穴，对人类通常表现出高度容忍。无危；繁殖于欧洲和亚洲西部，越冬于撒哈拉以南非洲。
Oriental Stork
The oriental stork is one of the most endangered stork species, with fewer than 3,000 individuals remaining in the wild. It was once widespread across East Asia but declined dramatically due to wetland drainage and pesticide use. Reintroduction programs in Japan and Korea have achieved notable success.
