Grey Crowned Crane (Balearica regulorum)

'G' is for Grey Crowned Crane! ;-)

This blip is actually a 'Back Blip'

This Grey Crowned Crane (Balearica regulorum) resides in the Bird Gardens at Monte Casino in Johannesburg.

C&R sr spent yesterday and last night at the luxurious Palazzo Monte-casino Hotel and went to the infamous show 'Defending the Caveman', the outing arranged by R sr as a surprise for C's birthday on Sunday the 26th. It was absolutely brilliant and a hillarious comedy show! They enjoyed it tremendously, and the Hotel stay-over was the cherry on top, the ultimate in luxury accomodation!

They walked through the Bird Gardens and were constantly on the lookout for Blips with 'G' for me!! Thank you my darlings, this is sooo deeply appreciated!

C realised that there were quite a few 'G' blips available and decided to just quickly run through again this morning, before they return, to get me a picture for today (Friday) as well, the dear ticket office clerk allowed her in to take pics of 2 more birds after she explained about the 'G' Blips yesterday!! How sweet!
