This is a lesser adjutant (Leptoptilos javanicus). Nice image. Is there a slight tilt?

Excellent image,I think it will be better to do some editing i.e. increasing the sharpness,contrast and color.

Nice image of L. A. Stork. Nice feeling to see the image from North-East. Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

Beautiful sighting and nice picture of this large bird. The focus seems locked on the leaves in front and hence a soft image. Like Abhirup suggests, slightly opening up the brightness / contrast and probably a round of sharpening will enhance this image. The eye contact and head turn is a great plus for this image.

Thanks for sharing
