Black-necked Crane at Qing-zang Plateau

The Qing-zang Plateau, often called the roof of the world, forms one of the highest & most extensive elevated regions on Earth, its immense open grasslands & arid steppe dominating the Tibetan landscape. It is here, amid this vast highland scenery, that photographers joining NaturesLens' Tibetan Wildlife of the Qing-Zang Plateau holiday can seek out the Black-necked Crane. November offers the best opportunity to visit, allowing time to work with the plateau's expansive, open terrain when composing images of this striking species. Patience & an appreciation for the scale of the landscape will serve photographers well when framing the cranes against such an immense backdrop.
