Whooping Cranes

Technically not the greatest images, but they are images of a rare bird so I posted them anyway.

Whooping Cranes are members of an endangered species whose population numbers only about 500.
Native to North America, the whooping crane stands 5 feet tall, with a long neck and long legs. Its pure white body feathers are accented by jet-black wing tips and a red and black head, with a long, pointed beak. The wings are about 8 feet across.
