Brolgas

Brolgas are large cranes (wings to almost 2M) , native to the north and eastern inland parts of Australia. When I saw these just after we left the Dinosaur Museum they initially took off (PiP), but fortunately they landed again some distance away and I was able to get this image. They are distinguished by their red heads.

Bonitas imágenes, George. Parece que tienen el pico agudo y duro, porque para sacar algo de esa aridez lo necesitan.
