At the Wildlife Safari Park near Ashland, Nebraska. (Not a Whooping Crane as I originally thought.)

It looks a more like a Sandhill crane. I think Whooping cranes are white.
Good shot nonetheless.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Fine shot of this Sandhill Crane. Looks like it is a tagged and monitored one. Nice work.

The crane looks very statuesque and looks marvelous against all the greenery...I can see this as a beautiful wall hanging...lovely capture.

I don�t think I have ever seen one except in pictures and this capture is excellent.

Uhmmmm... Isn't that ... oh, okay, someone else mentioned sandhill. Here in North Dakota I'm constantly coming across them in the slim backwaters of lakes and creeks, kayaking in quietly so they usually don't know I'm there until I turn the corner... or my wife is talking about her job. Beautiful, elegant birds. Either this one was very trusting or you used a long lens.
