I've never seen a sandhill crane before, other than perhaps in a zoo. It must have been magical indeed to see them all flying up from their roost.<br /><br />You asked about the photo on my last post--I think it's a white heron. I took it in Arizona near my daughter's apartment. It's a small man-made lake near a golf course, so I don't think they would have anything too exotic there.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-91922395814288837302010-04-01T19:51:39.327-05:002010-04-01T19:51:39.327-05:00What a lovely day you had with the cranes.

I'd never seen one before moving to Florida. I've never seen them in flocks like the ones you picture. They're always in pairs or with their young. They're protected here in FL. They are tremendously graceful and beautiful!Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18123627573356760362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-17843577058391758642010-04-01T07:51:06.707-05:002010-04-01T07:51:06.707-05:00Dear Sherry....the Sandhill Cranes are majestic an...Dear Sherry....the Sandhill Cranes are majestic and beautiful. It must be a great honour to sit amongst them....I can but imagine.<br /><br />March went out with a roar here....much too loud for my liking. Heavy rain and bitterly cold winds tore through my gardens.....also thunder and lightning.....it kept me awake for most of Tuesday night.<br /><br />Still things are calm today and Easter is coming. I shall entertain the old folk tomorrow....then Sat/Sun Poppi Riley and my daughter will stay to celebrate Easter and Grandpops birthday.....we will go hunting for eggs and I have a very special breakfast planned. <br /><br />Have a wonderful Easter weekend........Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14802468583972118464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-50469486198905748432010-04-01T05:48:43.890-05:002010-04-01T05:48:43.890-05:00I knew you would enjoy the trip.
