The way cranes sleep
When cranes slept or rested, they stood up. They usually stood on the ground with one foot and retracted the other to rest. After a while, they would put down the other foot to replace it. This was because cranes had many natural enemies and had to be highly vigilant. If they were to lie down and sleep, they would not be able to escape in time. Moreover, their legs were long and thin, and they could not bear the weight of their bodies for a long time. This method of sleeping on one foot did not make them feel tired, and they could quickly put down one foot when danger came, spread their wings, and fly away to escape from danger.
