I'm starting to see these large beautiful birds in our area
.Just west of here but still a good drive you can see them in large numbers. .Thank you for your comments.
I'm looking forward to a day of sunshine, and having lunch with my friend Kathleen who is home from Kenya, where she has been doing mission work. Some might remember she is the lady who I met while out taking pictures, and we hit it off, and have remained friends, and whenever she is home we make it a point to get together for lunch, and conversation.
I hope you have pleasant day.

I love the detail in the crane, and the way it looks against the background grasses. Very nicely done, Sandi.

This Image GRABBED my EYE. That's Why I Stopped By. Thanks For Sharing ! Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience
Beautiful image, Sandi .
There's a heavy population of these beauties in the Jasper/ Pulaski county area on our state.
Wheatfield Indiana has a Sandhill Crane festival .

Live Life ... like someone left the gate open .
I've never seen one of these Sandi. Appears to be a rather large bird. Well done with the post and enjoy your visit with Kathleen.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

Reading this just wastes five seconds of your precious life.
They are fascinating. So much of the body,neck and head, in front of the feet. Perfect composition, Sandi.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
Stunning detail in this photo and great composition plus outstanding colours.

It would be a face without a smile, a feast without a welcome." A.J. Balfour
I'm not sure if I've ever seen these birds in my area, perhaps standing in water but never striding around on the ground as this one appears to be doing...great shot, SAS...and have a fun day with your friend.

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have any film.
What an impressive bird Sandi. It seems to be perfectly camouflaged to suit its surroundings.

Terrific job Sandi. You captured this crane beautifully. I seen a flock of them just a couple of weeks ago in the Wheeler Wildlife Preserve. Didn't get as close as you did.

Life's moments are sweet. I just want to capture all that I can of them.
A good capture of the crane, Sandi. Nice clarity and lighting in the photo.

Joking aside your fortunate to see them in the wild, but I'm pleased you do as you've captured her/him so well with your camera. (o:
