Welcome to BEAK WEEK!
We will feature one or two of our avian species each day!
The beauty of the African Crowned Crane is unmatched by other cranes!
Our cranes are a part of the SSP, Species Survival Plan!
Enjoy some courting or "dancing" between our cranes!
Is it a rain dance?
Many native groups believe cranes are able to bring rain with them!
Ritual performers will add pictures of cranes, or crane dance movements, into their own rituals, to bring about the rainy season.
The crowned crane is the national bird of Uganda.
Consider a gift of support during Beak Week! A $10 contribution will more than feed any one of our birds on a given day - although, our fish and small mammal eaters are close to that in daily costs.
