Dinosaur birds in the dead tree.

Possible "dinosaur birds" in the dead tree north of the main gate. I've only seen them there once, if they were, in fact, dinosaur birds. Of course, my so-called dinosaur birds don't actually exist. We only call them that because they bring to mind pterodactyls. But that's not even correct because it turns out that pterodactyls couldn't glide, and these birds often do.

I am a very shitty birder, I admit. There is some possibility that these are Asian Open-Billed Cranes. Give me a couple of years, and maybe I will get to confirmation. But maybe not. I enjoy watching them return to roost each evening regardless. They are fantastic gliders.
