Danbooru の英語定義
Latin: Grus japonensis JP: タンチョウヅル (tanchou-dzuru) A rare, endangered East Asian crane (animal) species, distinctive for the red patch on its head which is actually bare, brightly-colored skin. This plus the black neck, white streak leading from the red crown partially down the neck, and white body make them easy to identify. This crane is one of the largest crane species. Overall, they are snow white with black secondary flight feathers (in flight, these are the row of largest feathers present on the "lower arm" of the wing).
