While waiting for migratory birds to make their way into Arkansas, here is an exotic bird who is with us all year. This Grey Crowned Crane (Balearica regulorum) from the Savannah of Africa is a permanent resident of the Little Rock Zoo.
This blog is designed for no other purpose, but to be a vehicle to share my love of birding with other bird enthusiast, particularly with those who might also live in and around the Bismarck area. Be sure to click on the pictures to get a larger, more detailed image and feel free to comment or make suggestions for any entry.
