The stork is the symbol of the Alsace region of France. Strasbourg (capitol of the Alsace region) was home to many of these large birds as evidenced by these souvenir shops selling stuffed storks.

Interesting!! I have ancestors who were married in this region, over a century ago. So it was kinda special to read the history of the stork.
