Stork
Storks are primarily carnivorous and eat reptiles, small mammals, insects, fish, amphibians and other small invertebrates. They devour almost all living things without mercy. It is perhaps this destruction of living things that Adam saw when he named the stork "not understanding holiness and mercy". Holiness and mercy are the attributes of God, so he named it "Not understanding God".
One of God's names is 'Elohim' אלהים. It means 'God אל separated from men ים (his creation י finished by the son ם) by ignorance'. His name tells us that he wants us to know him. Some say you have to believe God before you can know him. But that is not what God said. He said you could know him first, then trust and understand him. [1]
The main purpose of God is to teach us that he is Holy or different and separated. [2]; He alone is God. He also teaches that he is Love. [3]

Heron
When the heron hunts, it stand very still in the water looking for it's prey. When it sees something, it moves it's head back and forth to get the targeting range through the water. Perhaps Adam named it 'yearning undulation (back and forth movement)' for this behavior. Once it had that name, by word-play (see the scroll) it became 'her anger'.
Jesus said that if we were angry, we were guilty of murder. Angry words can hurt people for a very long time. But they hurt you even more. [4] .
When you are angry, you allow something else to control you. You think you are real important and should be treated better. But see how easily you are controlled? You can be made to be angry simply if you are told that it is bed time. You are out of control. The one who is in control does not need to be angry.
The heron also has a wild headdress that may have made it look angry to Adam.
