Sandhill cranes

Such a crowdy place ****************

This is only a small fraction of the cranes. I plan to make a panorama of all the birds I saw from this place and post it in a few days.

MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and Nancy.

I am happy for you to have such sight to enjoy and photograph.

Thanks, Dörthe. Merry Christmas.

Terrific photo, Ronald. Certainly are a lot of them there!

Thanks, Betty. A man who visits there regularly estimated there were about 3000 cranes visible from the observation building that day.

Eine fantastische Serie Ronald !
Über den ganzen Monitor sieht das Bild großartig aus.

Danke schön, Ingrid, und ein glückliches neues Jahr .

Beautiful! Merry Christmas, Ronald! Wishing you a very Happy New Year in 2019, my friend!! Thank you for your friendship and support!

(I haven't been on much. Have been starting up an instagram account @cher12861. Hopefully on more soon!)

Thank you for your visit and nice comment, Cheryl. Best wishes for the New Year.

What an amazing sight Ronald. Beautifully captured and I love the reflections. Happy New Year to you

Thank you very much, Carol. I try to visit these birds every winter. Best wishes for the New Year.

Ronald, these birds are so beautiful. I also love the warm tones and the reflections too. The dof is just right so that the birds far away are a lovely blur.I think it's so awesome that you got to see SO MANY OF THEM!!! What an experience!

Thank you for sharing this cool shot with us...I am so full of envy, you lucky man! :)

I am so glad you like this photo, Janet. The photo only shows a small fraction of the birds. I haven't yet got around to stitching together a panorama. We were told there were about 3000 birds visible that day.
