a few years ago, one wood stork visited our pond here in Texas and i was amazed at its size and yes, rather ugly face! :)

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, certainly is the case for these birds.

These shots are wonderful. They might not be very pretty but they're still awesome birds. Love those spoonbills!
