The white stork (*Ciconia ciconia*) is a large, graceful bird known for its striking appearance and migratory behavior. Native to Europe, North Africa, and parts of Asia, it has a distinctive white body with black wing feathers, long red legs, and a sharp red bill. White storks prefer open landscapes like wetlands, grasslands, and agricultural fields, where they hunt for insects, small mammals, amphibians, and reptiles.

They are renowned for their long migrations, traveling thousands of kilometers between Europe and sub-Saharan Africa during the winter months. White storks are also famous in folklore, often associated with fertility and luck, particularly in European cultures, where they are believed to deliver babies.

These birds build large nests in trees, on rooftops, or poles, and are known to return to the same nest year after year. Conservation efforts have helped stabilize their population after years of decline due to habitat loss.
