  1. adjutant bird

    An adjutant bird, also known as adjutant stork, is a large wading bird in the stork family Ciconiidae. This name is often used to refer to two different species, the lesser adjutant and the greater adjutant. These birds are native to Southeast Asia and India, standing tall with long legs and neck. They're distinguished by their bald heads and necks, massive bills, and a pouch hanging from the lower half of their necks. They're called "adjutant" due to their stance, which resembles a military officer aiding a superior (an adjutant).
