Shoebill 鲸头鹳

(重定向自Balaeniceps rex)
Molecular studies have found the hamerkop to be the closest relative of the shoebill.
The shoebill's conspicuous bill is its most well-known feature.

The shoebill (Balaeniceps rex) also known as whalehead or shoe-billed stork, is a very large stork-like bird. It derives its name from its massive shoe-shaped bill. Although it has a somewhat stork-like overall form and has previously been classified in the order Ciconiiformes, its true affiliations with other living birds is ambiguous. Some authorities now reclassify it with the Pelecaniformes. The adult is mainly grey while the juveniles are browner. It lives in tropical east Africa in large swamps from Sudan to Zambia.
