White stork landing on nest.
A white stork (likely a Ciconia ciconia) is preparing to take flight from its nest. Its wings are outstretched, and its legs are still perched on the nest, indicating the transition from resting to taking off. The nest, constructed of twigs and branches, is the stork's home and a place for raising young.
