Not only did I not know there were such things as gay storks, but I also didn’t know this:

Four gay storks have proved they are as capable of raising a family as their heterosexual counterparts.

Staff at the zoo in Overloon, near Eindhoven, were unsure if the gay and lesbian storks would still have the same natural urge to raise offspring.

But after giving one egg to a pair of gay males to sit on, and another two eggs to a pair of lesbian storks, they say the gay storks took to parenthood straight away.

Zoo spokeswoman Esther Jansen said all three chicks had hatched successfully: "The gay storks look after the eggs and the chicks just as well as our heterosexual birds."

James Dobson is probably going to condemn the storks for their destructive lifestyle, and propose a federal amendment to the Constitution decreeing that all bird marriages must be between a male of the species and a female of the species.
