Red crown cranes at sunrise
Red-crown cranes (Grus japonensis) on a snowy early morning seen through the mists on the Setsuri River. Taken from the Otowa Bridge. The cranes spend the night on the river and at sunrise they take off and fly to the local fields to feed. They are an endangered species that are making a bit of a come back these days, thanks to a winter feeding program started by local farmers.
