Why are storks long bills and long legs so useful?

Storks have long bills and legs that are adapted for their feeding and habitat needs. Their elongated bills allow them to probe into mud and shallow waters to catch fish, amphibians, and invertebrates, while their long legs enable them to wade efficiently through wetland environments without getting their bodies submerged. This combination of features enhances their foraging capabilities and helps them thrive in diverse aquatic habitats. Additionally, their height provides a better vantage point for spotting prey.
