Does Anyone know what the name of this bird is????

Question

OK, so...I was watchin the Discoery channek and there was a special on the dumbist/strangest animals and one of them was a bird that has such a big beak it fell in the water when it tried to catch something. It was some kind of tall crane looking thing. Anyone know what I am talking about? I am trying to find a picture of it so I can show a friend, she doesn't believe me that it is real.

Answer 1

Maybe a Shoe-billed Stork or a Jabiru.
