International Crane Foundation

Today I visited the International Crane Foundation. There are 15 species of cranes worldwide and this is the only facility that has all 15 of them. Many were inside their shelters. Others were too far away to get good pictures. These are the ones that were close enough to get fairly decent pictures of.
Brolga:                                                                                                                              Eurasian:
Grey Crowned:                                                                                                                              Red Crowned:
I forgot what this crane was. Some pictures on the Internet say it is a grey crowned; others say it is a red crowned.
Sarus:                                                                                                                              Siberian:
 
Wattled:                                                                                                                              White-napped:
The Whopping Crane:
