Dance of the Sand Hill Crane

DANCE OF THE SAND HILL CRANE
 
Such gentle giants! Although their call is loud and boistrous (especially up close and early mornings!) These beautiful birds are gentle and calm, friendly and fun. I have been lucky enough to see them playing like children. Typicaly I see them pick up a pinecone and throw it around while dancing about. Sometime two of them together. The other day I came home to find them in the side yard and the little one was having a great time with a piece of moss. To see them outstretch their wings and jump up and bellow with enjoyment is truly wonderful. I hope that I have captured that essence for you here to enjoy as well.

Sand Hill Cranes play. Typically I see them picking up a pine cone and dancing with it. This day it was just some weeds and Spanish Moss. Fun.
