Stork

Storks, White stork, Stork delivering a baby

Tall, white and long-legged, the stork is best known as the bird that delivers babies in old stories. A dream stork often heralds something new arriving: a project, a responsibility or a change in the family. It isn't a forecast of a real pregnancy, though the dream may come naturally when someone around you is expecting. Storks return to the same nest year after year, so they also stand for homecoming and loyalty to a place. A stork flying high suggests that what you're waiting for is on its way.
