EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking photograph captures a mesmerizing moment in the natural world, as a flock of Demoiselle Cranes (Anthropoides virgo) gracefully take flight against the backdrop of towering mountains in Nepal. Demoiselle Cranes are a type of large, ancient bird native to Asia, known for their distinctive, elegant appearance and unique mating dance. The Demoiselle Cranes in this image are likely on their annual migration, traveling from their breeding grounds in Central Asia to their wintering grounds in India and Southeast Asia. The mountains in the background, with their snow-capped peaks and lush greenery, add a sense of grandeur and scale to the scene, highlighting the cranes' remarkable ability to navigate the challenging terrain. The Demoiselle Crane is an important symbol in various cultures throughout history, representing peace, prosperity, and good fortune. In Nepal, the cranes are considered a national emblem and are protected under the country's Wildlife Protection Act. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and resilience of nature, reminding us of the importance of preserving and celebrating the natural world. The Demoiselle Cranes' flight over the mountains is a sight to behold, a moment of pure wonder and inspiration that transcends borders and unites us all in our appreciation for the natural world.
