Field Notes
Description:
White stork with thick, yellowish bill and blackish flight feathers.
Feeds on fish, amphibians and small rodents.
Habitat:
Mandai (Upper Seletar Reservoir) marshes.
Notes:
A group of 4-5 storks was seen flying back and forth across the water, sometimes carrying branches, presumably building a nest. A young stork was spotted during their eating time on the marsh.
A vulnerable species, it is known that they were introduced by the Singapore Zoo as free-flying birds since 1987, now breeding freely there.
