Sandhill family

Found this nest a couple weeks ago, just south of my house. Public fishing area, they nested right by a boat ramp. They gave us some pretty good views of them walking around feeding, then the baby came back to the nest and Mom settled in. Pretty sure the baby is only a day or two old, based on Mom still incubating the other egg. The other adult was just out of frame, kept feeding the whole time.
