 Our elegant photo blind on the banks of the Platte River |
 Cynthia, as always, reading! (the birds weren't THERE yet) |
 Here come the birds!! |
 A glorious sunset |
 Sunset light on the Sandhill Cranes |
 Several families ... |
 LOTS of families! |
 Mating dance! |
 Ta da! |
 Mating (or mating practice?) |
 so sweet |
 Leaping ... |
 Coming in for a landing -- gear down! |
 Take off |
 Delicate wing spread |
 Getting settled on the braided mud banks within the river |
 The happy couple taking off |
 And flying in formation |
 In flight -- fantastic! |
 Another couple |
 Cool bent wings |
 Golden glow |
 Parents with one adolescent |
 And on into the river |
 Gorgeous wings (4 legs?) |
 Leaping for joy! |
 Dangling legs for landing |
 There were 50,000 Cranes - and 2 Killdeer! |
 Cynthia - three layers of pants, four layers on top ... |
 Jim (a bit braver, with less layers ...) |
 Leaving the next morning, with pee bucket in hand! |
