Cranes, Cranes & More Cranes

The Cranes have returned, and finally I've been able to get some good shots of them!  Two of them were in the cattails right next to the road, until some woman walking her dog came by and they flew away. I was able to get one shot of them beginning to "dance" before she scared them off. Caught a pair of them across the pond calling and bowing to each other as well. Their calls sound so prehistoric, and I imagine it's what pterodactyls must have sounded like. Maybe next year I'll take my video camera as well, and try to record them - IF I can catch them at the right time!

Let the dance begin!
