The White Stork is a large, majestic wading bird instantly recognizable by its striking white plumage and black flight feathers. Known for its long legs and neck, it is a quintessential sight across open landscapes.
Where to spot
Found across Europe, Asia, and parts of Africa, favoring open habitats such as agricultural fields, wet grasslands, and shallow wetlands. They often forage in recently mown fields or near livestock.
How to spot
Look for their large size and contrasting black-and-white plumage. They are often seen soaring high on thermals, wading in shallow water, or walking purposefully in fields. Listen for their distinctive bill-clattering calls at the nest.
When to spot
Best observed during the breeding season from spring to late summer in temperate zones, and during their impressive migrations in spring and autumn. Resident year-round in some warmer regions.

White Storks frequently build their enormous nests on rooftops, chimneys, and utility poles in human settlements, especially across Europe, often considered symbols of good luck and new beginnings.
