The picture of Common Cranes (which is a still not a moving shot) is there
but the commentary at that point clearly says "Straw Necked Ibis", but it
may have been fixed since it was originally posted? Or is this a case where
a colloquial name has been mixed up with the real birds - herons are
referred to as cranes in parts of the country aren't they? Perhaps somebody
heard "cranes" and went and found a picture of the real thing (ie put 2 + 2
together and got 5)?
