MARABOU STORK— MUSEUM— NOTE 
ATTITUDES OF MARABOU STORK DURING FLIGHT 
A distinguished ornithologist, Mr. Pycraft, writes to inquire 
if any members of the Society can give information on the 
following point from actual observation in the field. Does the 
Marabou stork fly with its neck stretched out like a swan or 
drawn back like a heron ? It is a simple question, but most 
people when asked to state from memory which is the fact 
will own that they are not quite sure. Editor.
