Explaining Nature on Instagram: "The shoebill stork (often just called shoebill) is a large, prehistoric-looking bird found in swampy areas of central and eastern Africa. It gets its name from its enormous, shoe-shaped bill, which it uses to catch big prey like fish, lungfish, frogs, and even baby crocodiles. Standing up to 5 feet tall with a wingspan over 7 feet, it moves slowly and silently through wetlands, often standing still for hours before striking with powerful accuracy. • #reels #explo
