Proud Mama Crane Watches Her Tiny Baby Cranes' First Moments (Video)

For this crane family, the raising of their young has just begun. And like many first-time parents, these crane parents learn through experience. After a long month of waiting, the eggs are beginning to hatch! One colt pops out quite quickly, but his sibling takes his sweet time coming out of his shell. Eventually, he gets a little help from mom, and out he goes! Ready to explore the world! 

It's a whole new world for these sweet babies, who have spent the past month in a tiny cramped shell. Their dad protects them from unwanted visitors, as they begin to explore and get comfortable on their feet. Luckily, it does not take more than an hour for the babies to feel good on their feet and be able to move around smoothly. Their parents proudly watch and support them throughout the journey, not to mention that they are on an incredible journey themselves, a little journey called parenthood.
