Sarus pair

[Kaustuv Chatterjee]

On the way to Bharatpur adjoining the national highway, a large Sarus flew across and joined its mate and juvenile in a mustard field. Here we see both of them together. One of the most beautiful and stately birds to adorn the planet.

Wow lovely to see a sarus crane pair. You were lucky to sight it on the way to Bharatpur. Nice eye contact. There is loss of details, is this a crop? Thanks for sharing.

I guess tallest flying bird. Can't think of any other bird which is taller and can fly.

I think more space at the bottom to show the virtual legs will be nice. How is the situation in Bharatpur now? Thanks for sharing.
