Little red rooster

Burg Hayn

Medieval festival in Burg Hayn, near Frankfurt. Great display of falconry with a variety of birds. 

Feeling white down

Homeless cockatiel

Heard this guy a few times while traveling to/from work. Some people have been feeding him to try to get close. Hope he gets a nice new home sooner or later! 

Day 223

Last of the cranes

Every year thousands of cranes make a massive journey from the cold northern lands of Siberia and Canada to Izumi, Kagoshima prefecture, Japan to stay for the  winter before heading back again in spring. There were about 30 birds that have stayed behind this year. Cranes are said to mate with one partner for life so I wonder if any of them were there just to be with an injured loved one.
