Very nice portrait of this beautiful crane, very confident, ciao Giangiorgio

Warren. your apparent proximity to this sandhill crane (common in SE Florida) is due either to your bravery or to a long-range lens. The first time I was in the presence of such magnificent birds was in Sebring, Florida; a close friend let me know that I was in the danger zone. The image clearly demonstrates the bird's beauty, especially its saucer-like eyes. If this were my image, I would have slightly darkened the white feathers, which currently have only hints of detail.
