The Gray Crowned Crane is the national bird of Uganda, just to the west of Kenya, and common in much of East Africa. The cranes in this picture were the "floor show" while we had lunch one day, doing what they're famous for: a mating display that involves bowing, jumping and intricate dancing. Cranes are among the most ancient of birds. Archaeologists have found traces of cranes mixed in with traces of other pre-historic creatures.
