Hi,

unussual shot today- migrating Common cranes (Grus grus- PL:Żuraw).
The largest group of migrating birds I've seen this year- in total 376 birds!

The largest bird in Poland, starts to comming back very early- in February, loud trumpeting call can be heard from a distance of few kilometers. This large group I have observed near Olsztyn. They made really loud noise despite of very high position on sky.

Migrating cranes in Asia can fly even on 10 000 meters, over the Himalayah mountains.
Polish birds are spending their winter in south parts of France, Spain, north and west side of Africa.

Thanks a lot for watching,
Have a safe weekend!

When you lok in the galery, before entering at this picture, it seems only a blue picture. I was wandering...what is this? Fantastic.I never saw crane, so , I am glad that you can see them, even only migrating in Poland. And, nice picture.

Hola Adrian: Es una bonita foto y un documento muy interesante...saludos...

Pieknie! Ze tez chcialo Ci je wszystkie policzyc! :) Choc w sumie takie zdjecie jest swietne na lamiglowke-zagadke, wlasnie z pytaniem, ile ptakow na nim sie znajduje :)
Oryginalna i ciekawa prezentacja, nawet jesli - z wiadomych wzgledow - nie przykuwa oczu tak jak pojedynczy ptak :)
Pozdrawiam i zycze milego weekendu!
