[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Marabou stork has many characteristics similar to Vultures. It's main food source is also carrion similar to vultures. It is not an attractive bird but has a definite presence and cannot be ignored when one is close to it.

Good pose, a little over exposed in the beak tip area, but still a good portrait post, well done

Very nice shot!
Excellent sharpness and great colours,
good POV and nicely framed.
Thanks for sharing!

That is a humungous beak, Deon. I have never seen one with such intense colors on the head. Great capture with sharp details and great POV. A good moment with his beak open. TFS. : )
