Day 3 Sandhill Cranes - soft light

[Allan]

These might be my favorites images of the young cranes I took this March.
The little cranes were 3 days old here. They had spent the day walking in fields and were returning to the nest at night.

This is the sweetest series both image and heart wise! I also love #6!

All the pictures are great but when you add in the scale of the adult it takes it to another level for me.

That is true! The adults add!

Thanks Louie. I miss the family. They would still be in the area for several more weeks.

Glowing cute, nicely done!

Glowing is a good word here. Thanks.

These are perfect images. Nicely done. The last SHC eggs I was watching hatched Thursday night but we're killed by predators before Friday's sunrise.

Thanks for the comment. I do like these more than the others I took. Real shame for you and the babies but I guess good for some animal.

Number 3 and number 6 combine color, composition, and lovely light to tell a story. Excellent.

Thanks Doug. I like the individuals but also the parent-child interaction. Perhaps I should have put these in separate posts.

Thanks - they are cute and the lighting here helps accentuate that.
