Now Scoot!

“I am trying to rest and do not appreciate the sound of a shutter bothering me,” thought the sandhill crane. “Now scoot! Go bother some blue herons.”

I spotted this sandhill crane as I was walking out to my car from church. Never have I been so glad that I take my camera almost everywhere with me. Want to see some blue herons? Here’s an image of nesting herons on my post “Clouds Above and Below.”

  2. […] When I spotted this sandhill crane, it did not seem to be in a hurry to leave. Though it did keep a close eye on me while I worked on getting a closeup of its beautiful feathers. The first image was used on an earlier post, “Now Scoot.” […]
