鹿児島県出水 part 5: More cranes and scenery

Staying overnight means you can get up early to watch the cranes get ready for breakfast, stretch their wings and fly to one of the feeding stations, from where they return to their favorite field where they spend the rest of the day with their family. The most common cranes are Hooded Cranes, ナベヅル followed by White-naped Cranes, マナヅル . The latter carrying themselves more elegant in stance and movement.

Maybe it was still a bit early in the year for acts of display, but here are some:
