I was going to say I liked the first one. Then I saw the 3rd image. Nice set.

I like Sandhills because they squawk loud when they are approaching to land. So you can be prepared and wait for them.

Thanks for sharing.

Oh, OK. Now I understand. Was getting worried they might be leaving here and the forcast continues unfavorable. Maybe Wednesday.

Not an inflight you see everyday. I have yet to see one of these magnificent birds. You did an excellent job capturing them Chris.
