Thank you for your comment. Yes, shoebills are very beautiful and noble, but they are on the verge of extinction unfortunately. I hope a lot of people get to know them and that will help protect them.
Very nice and peaceful. The music fits each one perfectly. :o). It is good for the soul to be around such intelligent and serene animals. (maybe even when they are jumping and flying?). :o) Always interesting Shoebills, thank you for bringing them to us.
I hope Shizuka lives many more years. I also hope they provide a shelter from the cold wind, just a little something to snuggle in during the rain or the strong wind. She is beautiful.
Thanks for your warm comments. They have their own rooms and seem to stay warm at night. On rainy or snowy days, they may possibly stay in their rooms. Shizuka-san is very old, so I think it is time for meticulous health care. Bill, Japan's longest-lived shoebill, died two years ago, spent about 50 years in Japan. I hope Shizuka-san will live a long life as well.
Hello! I was so happy to find this video again. It is so peaceful and soothing. Can't believe it has been this long. ❤Shizuoka is an old lady like me. I guess we have that in common. It is nice when life slows down a bit. Take care!
Thanks, I saw Jitto(male shoebill) went to her side and said hello with clattering every 20 minutes. If she was a little younger, she would have answered his call, but she stands quietly near him.
Yes, she may have found something, which wasn't what she expected, I guess. The shoebill usually moves slowly, but it moves extremely quickly when they find something.
