The birds themselves were so freely eating on the side of the road. They are a large breed of bird that can be intimidating at 15-20 feet away. As you can see the 1st bird in the forefront was frilling his neck feathers as if to say "Stand Back"....which I happily did once I got that shot.Editing
My editing skills & photography knowlege are of an amateur level. I'm hoping to learn more at the Palm Coast Photography Club & Saint Augustine Camera Club.In my camera bag
Just a Nikon D5300 with 300mm zoom and a 50-70mm lensFeedback
Be nice and quiet...these Sand Hill Cranes don't like company especially when offspring are with them. But they posed perfectly for a split second.
