Wood Stork

The wood stork is a large American wading bird in the family Ciconiidae, the only member of the family to breed in North America. It was formerly called the "wood ibis", though it is not an ibis. It is found in subtropical and tropical habitats in the Americas, including the Caribbean.
The beak strike of this representative of the stork order is considered the fastest in the world; it only takes thousandths of a second to grab prey.
