We went down to Goose Pond today...nothing much at all on the ponds, but we know to go east of there and look in the farming area.
They were far away, and it was a gray day...so not the greatest photos. Add to that the fact that I had trouble with holding steady....I was in the middle of a narrow road so didn't even attempt to get tripod out.
Still it was fun seeing and hearing them...
I love watching them come in for a landing...
So much fun to see.
We also saw:
Your crane shots are really wonderful!! They are so beautiful and elegant. And you got them both on the ground and in flight! And the geese in flight form a X!
ReplyDeleteOh these pics are fun to see!
ReplyDeleteGreat crane shots. I love the ones in flight, making all the patterns in the sky.
ReplyDelete...they never seem to make it to our neck of the woods.
ReplyDeleteI love all the criss cross of the geese.. the 2nd shot of the cranes is hilarious. they look like they were having an election TALK....LOL
ReplyDeleteWhat super photos! So dramatic. I especially love the third one with those big cranes directly overhead, their legs just dingle-dangling in the air. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteYou really got some great photos. I'm never fast enough to get pics like that. Glad you enjoyed your visit to the pond. Hope you will have warmer weather this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI have only seen Sand Hill Cranes a couple of times up here. It's pretty darned exciting!!

WOW!!! To see the Sandhill Cranes is a special treat.Your pictures are great.
ReplyDeleteThose Sandhill Cranes are so unusual looking...they look so frail, flying with their legs dangling. I like them.
ReplyDeleteHello, WOW! I love seeing the large flocks of birds. Great sighting of the Sandhill Cranes. Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteI love watching the nature shows that show these cranes in their migration habitats. You have some great photos.
ReplyDeleteI like photos #2 and the last one the most. Cranes look like they were dancing.
