What an exciting experience. I live in the northeasteren part of Colorado near the Wyoming border and not so far from Nebraska where the cranes migrate to later in the year. We have always taked about going to see them. We have even seen them fly over, hearing them firsst.

They are large birds, aren't they, and I love their blue-grey color. I can't believe how many there are in that one spot! The only birds I've ever seen in such a large flock are black birds :( or Canadian Geese. You really captured some great photos!<br /><br />Thanks so much for your visit and have a great week!<br /><br />Denise at Forest ManorDenisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01235440820949449634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2601795050810366857.post-85208197125129777322015-02-11T12:50:44.946-08:002015-02-11T12:50:44.946-08:00Thank you for the very kind comment, for which I h...Thank you for the very kind comment, for which I have translated.<br />"Hello, is a beautiful photojournalism with beautiful photographs convey perfectly the strength and beauty of nature."Mary Howell Cromerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05473298562829352582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2601795050810366857.post-3512861431407688472015-02-11T11:33:43.347-08:002015-02-11T11:33:43.347-08:00Mary, you managed to capture so many wonderful ima...Mary, you managed to capture so many wonderful images of these beautiful birds, both in various stages of flight, as well as on the ground. I can see, via your photos, that the long drive was, in the end, worth it, as you say, since being present and among such wildlife has to be rejuvenating.<br /><br />Hope you're feeling better, my friend!<br /><br />Happy Valentine's Day!<br /><br />PoppyPoppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08980323586402386609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2601795050810366857.post-74448799011655351332015-02-11T08:14:16.647-08:002015-02-11T08:14:16.647-08:00Those are wonderful images Mary, almost as magical...Those are wonderful images Mary, almost as magical as those sounds we listened to.It is hard to do justice through pictures to such huge gatherings of birds. I know how my few inadequate pictures of thousands of geese can never equal the thrill of actually being there in mind and spirit.<br /><br />Such an uplifting experience is well worth a road trip of a few hours and in fact if I were to live close to such a spectacle i would find it difficult not to travel there on a regular basis. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing all of those images - and sounds.<br /><br />Take care.
