随意苍茫踏雪，胜似闲庭信步。

I enjoy walking on snow with long strides more than strolling in a yard

白头鹤

Hooded Crane

Grus monacha Temminck

白头鹤是国家一级保护动物。在向海，我一直跟踪记录观察了七年多的时间。它们每次来都选择相同的地点觅食停歇，而且，多在秋天。春天呢，想必是另有驿站。

Hooded cranes are the first class protected birds in China．I have been following their tracks in Xianghai for three years to get some best shots of them．
