Meanings of elements

PARASITIC with ROWDY JUXTAPOSED ORIFICES in MATING STANCE
…or: STORK, BIRD THAT MAKES NO VOICE SOUND, HERON, SMALL-CAPACITY, HIGH AMBITION and BIRD

STORKS:「It has few natural predators, but may harbour several types of parasite. The plumage is home to chewing lice and feather mites, while the large nests maintain a diverse range of mesostigmatic mites. …White stork nests are habitats for an array of small arthropods, particularly over the warmer months after the birds arrive to breed. Nesting over successive years, the storks bring more material to line their nests and layers of organic material accumulate within them. Not only do their bodies tend to regulate temperatures within the nest, but excrement, food remains and feather and skin fragments provide nourishment for a large and diverse population of free-living mesostigmatic mites. A survey of twelve nests found 13,352 individuals of 34 species…. A study of 120 white stork carcasses from Saxony-Anhalt and Brandenburg in Germany yielded eight species of trematode (fluke), four cestode (tapeworm) species, and at least three species of nematode.」

　CRANES don't fare much better:
　「After two winter seasons of sampling, we found that almost 30% of whooping crane fecal samples are positive for a protozoan parasite called coccidia. This is an important finding because the same species of coccidia has caused severe disease and death in captive crane chicks, and may be impacting population growth in the wild. The most common parasitic worm we have found in sandhill cranes is a fluke infecting the trachea in over 40% of sandhill cranes. We have also detected protozoan blood parasites in almost 60% of whooping cranes and sandhill cranes. These parasites are spread by blood-sucking vectors. Once we obtain the genetic signatures of these parasites, we can link them to similar parasites that cause disease in other populations of wild birds.」

Modern definitions (that generally disregard history) …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may list only pigeonholed definitions, euphemisms, or meaningless mnemonics)
Chinese: crane; stork
Japanese: stork
Unihan extended: crane, Grus japonensis; stork; Ciconia species (various)

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system. Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
