Sandhill Cranes are fascinating creatures...they are one of the oldest bird species on the planet. There is something I find captivating about them where ever I see them...while the geese are blasting off, swirling around and constantly fussing, the cranes just calmly go on about their business often alone or in small groups...This is a very late evening shot at one of the pools where you will often find the cranes very early or in this case very late in the day...
