These spectacular birds are big, standing up to 3.5 feet high with a wingspan of up to 5.5 feet. Their bodies are covered in white feathers, but their heads and necks are bald, covered in a scaly, dark gray skin. And if you get a chance to see them in flight, you'll notice their black flight feathers which is a pretty cool contrast to their white bodies.  \nNow that you've pictured these magnificent  \ncreatures, let's discover where they live and what they eat. Wood storks are found in the southeastern United States, but they really love the wetlands of Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina. They are expert fishermen who love to dine on small fish, and they have a unique fishing technique. They use their sensitive beaks to feel for fish in the murky water, and snap! They've got their dinner.  \nFrom their amazing fishing skills, let's move to their interesting life cycle and their relationship with other animals. Wood storks are quite social and like to live in large colonies with other birds. They build their nests in trees near water, often sharing their space with herons, egrets, and ibises. During breeding season, each pair of wood storks takes turns incubating their eggs, and then feeding and taking care of their chicks.  \nWe've learned so much about wood storks, but let's not forget about their relationship with us humans and their unique defenses. While they might look a bit intimidating with their large size and bald heads, wood storks are generally peaceful creatures and pose no threat to humans.
