Hooded cranes (*Grus monacha*) are seen in a harvested rice field, with their distinct white heads contrasting against their dark gray bodies. The rice field's stubble is dry and golden-brown, stretching across the image in rows. The seasonal landscape suggests post-harvest conditions, providing a suitable habitat for these cranes to forage for leftover grains. Their presence highlights the interplay between agriculture and wildlife, typical in regions where rice cultivation and crane migration overlap.
