Lesser Adjutant, Leptoptilos javanicus
The Lesser Adjutant (Leptoptilos javanicus) is a large wading bird in the stork family Ciconiidae. Like other members of its genus, it has a bare neck and head. It is however more closely associated with wetland habitats where it is solitary and is less likely to scavenge than the related Greater Adjutant. It is a widespread species found from India through Southeast Asia to Java. In India it breeds in North Est but a very small isolated population breeds around Bandhavgarh Ntl Park.
