Over 50 black-necked cranes drop by the fields of Xigaze for a "feast" after the autumn harvestOn October 15, in the farmland of Dingjie Town, Dingjie County, Xigaze City, more than 50 black-necked cranes -- national first-class protected animals -- arrived punctually in a group to "chow down"! Several young chicks trailed the flock, flapping their half-fledged wings and foraging side by side with grazing horses.
