Nicely done!

Great close-up! I saw my first Sandhill Crane today. It's a super rarity over here. There's a pair that have been nesting nearby the last few years. They're about 200 yds away in the reeds. The call is prehistoric. I was only able to get a shot that you can tell what it is. Still a thrill.

Nice one!

Very nice! I've never heard of one!

Beautiful captures!

Love those family photos! Great shot!

Great capture!

Thanks sogs.

What a nicely done series of the Golden-backed weavers constructing their amazing nests from start to finish, RAL! Very interesting!

Nicely done!

Great close-up! I saw my first Sandhill Crane today. It's a super rarity over here. There's a pair that have been nesting nearby the last few years. They're about 200 yds away in the reeds. The call is prehistoric. I was only able to get a shot that you can tell what it is. Still a thrill.

Nice one!

Very nice! I've never heard of one!

Beautiful captures!

Love those family photos! Great shot!

Great capture!

Thank you for the kindly compliment Sogs.
The Cranes are truly majestic, magnificent creatures. Happy trails.

Your mourning dove shot is perfect, Bill! It certainly does pop.
