Forms: Old English storc, (Middle English steorc), Middle English–1600s storke, Middle English– stork.

Etymology: Old English storc (masculine) = Old Saxon, (Middle) Low German, (Middle) Dutch stork, North Frisian stork, stourk, störk, Old High German storah, stork (Middle High German storch, storc, modern German storch, dialect stork), Old Norse stork-r (Swedish, Danish stork) < Germanic *sturko-z. Usually referred to the Germanic root *sterk- (see stark adj.), the name being supposed to refer to the apparent stiffness or rigidity in the bird's manner of standing. Some regard the word as cognate with Greek τόργος vulture. The names of the stork in various eastern European languages are commonly believed to be from Germanic: Old Church Slavonic strŭkŭ, Russian sterh, Lithuanian starkus, Latvian stārks, Hungarian eszterag, Albanian sterkjok.

a. A large wading bird of the genus Ciconia, allied to the ibis and heron; characterized by having long legs and a long stout bill.Usually, the name denotes the White Stork ( Ciconia alba), which stands over three feet high, and has brilliant white plumage with black wing-coverts and quills, and red legs. In summer it is an inhabitant of most parts of the Continent of Europe. A less common European species is the Black Stork ( C. nigra). The American Stork ( C. maguari) belongs to South America.
