Have you ever heard of the Black Necked Crane (Grus Nigricollis)? I have been sorting through some old correspondence and I found the following:
This was a card sent by the Chief Justice of Bhutan. Losar Greetings for the Fire-Rabbit Year
Viewed from the twin distances of time and space I find this card very special. I am glad I saved it.
According to Wikipedia this bird is a medium sized crane found in Asia. It breeds on the Tibetan Plateau and is found on the high plateaus of India and Bhutan. It is an endangered species. It is the state bird of Ladakh and in Bhutan a special festival is held in honor of it.
