Sandhill Cranes and the little ones

[Hunter58]

This was some really tough shooting, on one had I like them because it's a natural environment, rather than well manicured lawn at a park or subdivision but on the other hand it sure is tough to get a clear shot of them.

The little ones

Momma with one of them

Not enough light to get good depth on this shot

Boy mom & dad make walking through this stuff so easy, how do they do it?

The whole Famn Damily

I can't wait to out of here and travel the world!

It is always a fun challenge getting the focus point or points between little twigs,bushes or whatever.I like the natural settings my self.Nice and adorable.

Yep, a very nice set. Like the 1st just a tiny bit more than the others.

I agree. I think the first photo has the best sense of light and presents a wonderful mood. I would aim for more like that one. Great work!

I wonder why they call the chicks, "Colts?" They're spiffy little dudes at that age.

Hunter, nice shots. I am assuming we will get ongoing coverage of this family as the chicks mature.
