Bill, those are actually the equivalent of ankles.
Here is a shot of an equally large squatting Goliath Heron which shows
what I mean:

And a closer shot of a Saddlebill:

Just for interest, a heavily cropped shot of a Saddlebilled Stork with
Impalas on the W bank of Sable Dam, Kruger Park, about 300m distant.
Adult Saddlebilled Storks are about 1.5m tall with a wingspan of 2.5m.
This is probably a bit beyond the useful limit of a Sigma 170-500 DG on
a K5. A D-FA 150-450 with a 1.4x TC (630mm) or an FA 600 would do better
but such beasts are way beyond my budget.
