I'd never heard them referred to as an 'African Crested Stork' before; my Roberts Birds of Southern Africa calls them Grey Crowned Cranes (Balearica regulorum). Google has many references however to ACS, mostly to Flickr sites and stock images.

Always good to see birds of Africa though!

My sister and her family just returned from several weeks in Africa, and although their main interest was the animals, they returned with some quite good bird photos. Here are a couple: a Carmine Bee-eater in Botswana and an African Crested Stork in the Masai Mara.
