| '''Stork'''
| |
|
| |
|
| Storks are primarily carnivorous and eat reptiles, small mammals, insects, fish, amphibians and other small invertebrates. He devours almost all living things without mercy. It is perhaps this destruction of living things that Adam observed 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".

| The main purpose of God is to teach us that He is Holy or different and separated. <ref>{{bgw| Le 11:45 }} For I [am] the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I [am] holy.</ref>; He alone is God. He also teaches that He is Love. <ref>{{bgw| 1Jo 4:8 }} He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.</ref>

| '''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 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. <ref>{{bgw| Mt 5:21,22 }} Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: 22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.</ref> .

| 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.
