According to Wikipedia, this bird is known as the hamerkop, hammerkop, hammerkopf, hammerhead, hammerhead stork, or anvilhead.
This means that almost everyone who looks at this guy thinks “wow he sure does look like a hammer”, but there was at least one natural historian out there who was entirely contrarian.
