Grey Crowned Crane
Balearica regulorum
Grey Crowned Crane adults of both sexes have predominantly slate-gray plumage, with a paler gray neck and conspicuous white wing panels. White wing coverts contrast with chestnut patches and black flight feathers, while the gray back is unpatterned, elongated breast feathers hang loosely, and the short tail is dark. A crown of stiff, golden feathers radiates upward and outward above the velvety black forehead.
