Hello, all friends and bird lovers it was by mistake. and haven't been published in the #featheredfriends community. when I was reading other friends posts there I noticed my post was not there. It was published in #smap. which was the first tag in the post. sorry, I am republishing it in the right community.
When I watch the long-legged birds I notice they have big necks and big beaks It is amazing their anatomy is made for them according to their structures. But sometimes I feel they might have some difficulties with having long legs. I am a bird lover and observe birds often when I come across all kinds of birds I always think about how they manage their daily routines some have long legs, and some have long necks some have big beaks some are very white but play in dirt but manage to stay clean. Here are some long legs from both small and big birds. Entry for this time's smap contest to the #featheredfriends community hosted by @nelinoeva.

The painted stork Mycteria leucocephala is a large wader in the stork family. It is found in the wetlands of the flattened big areas. Painted storks breed on trees either in mixed colonies along with other water birds and in India, Keoladeo National Park has the nesting trees secured over long periods, including in wetland reserves, Photo taken by me at Keoladeo national park.

The black-winged stilt is a long-legged wader, The black-winged stilt Himantopus himantopus occurs in all the states in India. mostly around the water, These birds pick up their food from sand or water. They are all around us so not hard to find them in our area.

The Asian openbill or Asian openbill stork *Anastomus oscitans *.
more common around where we live in India. Whenever we go to wetlands to watch birds these guys are always in the pond or marsh. Always think about its beak so funny it is, but I like these guys very quiet and
friendly and enjoy with other's company.
By the roadside fields and wet places.
