Blue Crane Habitat
Meet the Stanley crane (also known as the blue crane). That soft blue grey colour almost looks unreal in real life, and those long flowing feathers aren’t tail feathers at all, they’re actually wing feathers called tertials. A few facts about this species: 🪶 National bird of South Africa 🌍 Found mainly in South Africa and Namibia, living on open grasslands ⚠️ Classified as Vulnerable due to habitat loss and human activity 🥚 Usually lays two eggs per clutch ⏳ Lifespan of around 20–30 years 🌱
