White Storks

Image by Steve Crane
Saw this flock of large birds overhead on 2019-03-23 while at an airshow in Stellenbosch, Western Cape, South Africa. I thought they might be pelicans but the long necks make me wonder. Do pelicans fly with necks extended?
UPDATE: They have been identified as white storks.
