Storks that Bring Babies

 So on top of posts, power poles, trees and transformers in this area of the world, the Storks build these enormous nests and they breed in them (obviously enough), but what amazes me is firstly the tenacity it must take to build a stick nest on top of a tiny power pole cross member and how each breeding season they build on.

I am not sure if they remain in the same nest, but some of the nests are HUGE and they drawf the power poles!!!  I keep trying to find the Grand daddy nest, but they tend to be in places that are less populated, so I am only seeing them in a drive by situation.        

 I know I am weird and I do have a thing about nests, but these are pretty cool.  How can a bird, with no hands, just claws and a beak, construct something so complicated, over 10 metres off the ground, that they would be willing to put their babies in???

They are the actual baby delivering storks, according to legend, as well!  They are huge and look like giant seagulls, only a bit more moggy and perhaps a bit thin, considering their wingspan.

They might struggle to deliver some of our less than tiny Kiwi babies.  Perhaps we might be best to stick to the more traditional delivery pattern???
