Tsuru “Cranes in Flight”
In Japanese mythology, the tsuru, or crane, comes from Mount Horai in heaven and carries happiness and good fortune to earth. The crane was also believed to have lived 1,000 years, therefore in Japan, it is revered as a symbol of resilience, strength, and long life.
Cranes are beautiful when flying and standing, and have been used as designs on many items, including kimonos, since ancient times. Cranes are also often used as family crests. With their black and white feathers and red heads, and slender bodies standing in a snowy landscape, the red-crowned cranes that breed in Japan could be said to be the most Japanese bird.
There is no need to explain that cranes have been the subject of ancient fairy tales, such as "The Crane's Return of Favor." This illustrates how deeply connected they are to Japan.
