The stork (Ciconia ciconia) is a large bird of the family of storks (Ciconiidae) of the order of Ciconiiformes. As a carnivore, the stork eats a wide range of animal prey, including insects, fish, amphibians, reptiles, small mammals and small birds. It takes most of its food from the ground, between low vegetation and from shallow water. He's a monogamous brother, but he's not a couple for life. The couple builds a nest consisting of large branches, which is sometimes used for years.
