...Sandhill Crane

Most of you know of my penchant for driving around early in the morning looking for wildlife. This morning I went out looking for baby moose. I have seen several in the past few days but haven't been able to get photos of them. I didn't have any luck with the moose but I did get very close to a Sandhill Crane on the Kenai River Flats near the Kenai City Boat Dock. The crane wasn't far from the road and I took the above photo from the driver's seat of my truck. This particular crane was alone although several flocks could be seen in the distance.

So, no baby moose pictures yet, but I'm happy with a...Sandhill Crane.
