Fowl Royalty

This portrait was taken at the Taman Safari Park outside of Jakarta. I have seen quite a few crowned cranes in the wild in Africa, but never with the right light etc. to make into a dramatic portrait.

 

I don't remember whether this was a black or grey crane. If I remember correctly, they housed both in the same area. The light is playing tricks on me when I look at the series of images I took. I will just call it a crowned crane.
