Sandhill Crane (Pair)

Canaan Valley, West Virginia

Drove from Timberline to the Canaan Valley NWR - Freeland Rd Boardwalk to see if I could spot the pair of Sandhill Cranes that have been spotted several times in the past few weeks.
Didn't see the pair last evening, thought I'd try again this morning.
Looks like they'll be landing nearby - maybe. Got three long distant reflex shots off; this is the best one of the three.
Yes, this was my first sighting of Sandhill Cranes in West Virginia.
