COMMON CRANE
(Grus grus)
A Common Crane is seen with a chick at WWT Slimbridge, in Gloucester, UK. I guess I've never understood why large, long-legged birds like cranes, or herons, or ostriches, etc., etc., seem so very much larger and taller than their chicks, compared to most smaller birds and their chicks. Or am I mistaken thinking there is a different proportional scale for large and small birds with their young?
Please comment if you wish.
