Black-necked Crane

The black-necked crane is a medium-sized Asian crane measuring approximately 139cm, with a wingspan of 235cm and a weight of 5.5kg. Its whitish-grey body contrasts with a black head and upper neck, black legs, a red crown patch and a white mark behind the eye. The sexes look similar. (Wikipedia, general species account)

The species breeds on the Tibetan Plateau and in remote areas of India and Bhutan. Some populations undertake seasonal movements. The opened material did not provide sufficiently specific information about its diet, nesting habitat, clutch size or incubation period, so those fields are omitted.
