The image displays a single Marabou Stork (Leptoptilos crumenifer) standing in profile, oriented towards the right, amidst a dense natural environment of green and yellowish-brown grasses and reeds. The bird exhibits dark grey-black dorsal plumage and white ventral plumage. Its head and neck are largely featherless and pinkish-red, with a distinctive red gular sac visible at the base of its neck. The long, heavy beak is dark. The background consists of varied vegetation, including taller green grasses and patches of lighter, drier grass, with some areas of exposed dark earth or mud, suggesting a marshy or wetland habitat. The scene is illuminated by natural daylight. Location: Unknown, Tanzania.
