Shoebill Magnets
Description: Is there any bird more majestic than the Shoebill stork? Probably. But look at that bill—one of a kind! And unlike the current administration’s “Big Beautiful Bill,” this one doesn’t threaten wildlife or the environment. That law weakens endangered species protections, rolls back clean air and water rules, and opens public lands to drilling. Repeal is possible—but only if we push. Contact your representatives, show up at town halls, wear this not-at-all-dorky shirt, and VOTE. Congress can—and must—reverse the bill before the damage is irreversible.
Description: The shoebill (Balaeniceps rex) also known as whalehead, whale-headed stork, or shoe-billed stork, is a very large stork-like bird. It derives its name from its enormous shoe-shaped bill. It has a somewhat stork-like overall form and has previously been classified with the storks in the order Ciconiiformes based on this morphology. However, genetic evidence places it with the Pelecaniformes.
