Not the prettiest looking bird by any mean,s but this Asian Openbill stood out to me when I visited Bundala National Park in Sri Lanka.
I’ve never seen a bird with a bill like this before, it’s curved so it actually doesn’t close shut all the way, except at the tip, strange huh? I asked about this Asian Openbill Stork, and was told that they like to eat snails so the curved bill works better! How is that for animal adaptation?
Just one of many bird species I saw in Bundala, if you’re into birding, or just enjoy nature like me, it is a must visit park in Sri Lanka!
