ED & LINDY'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURES....... In 2000, we began a website

chronicling our travels.  After using that site for 17 years, technology changed; it can no longer be updated.  Welcome to our NEW SITE which follows our journeys from the Fall of 2016 to present.  Our thanks go to Andy Paluch/WebGuyz!

We were really into some birds.  This is a male Saddle-Back Stork.  When it sits down, it appears that its knees rotate forward instead of backward like ours.  However, what appears to be its knees is actually the equivalent of our ankles which rotate exactly the same way.  We can't actually see the knees of the Saddle-Back Stork because they are against the body and hidden by feathers.
