For years I've wanted to see a sandhill crane. We once stopped at the Mississippi Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge in Gauthier, Mississippi and saw...not a single crane. Living, anyway; there were mounted examples on display. Now, living in Florida, I see them several times a week. Three of them were resting by the golf course today and allowed me to get close.
Just one more reason to celebrate the move! This girl is in Florida right now. i am not sure how close this is but thought you might be interested http://365project.org/365toygroup/365
@grammyn Thanks for your comments and the link, Katy. Loved the shots and comments about the weather. We're on the Atlantic Coast of Florida and Marco Island is on the Gulf side, but they aren't that far away.
@eudora I didn't know where you were or if I did I forgot. I know I would hate to miss someone that was close just becaus I didn't know they were near. I am really loving all the new things you are finding to shoot in your new home!
Looks like lots of photo opportunities for you. are you getting used to living in Florida, bet you still miss Louisiana.
very good close up with lots of details. fav.
This is a fantastic iimage, Diane!
