Magnificent birds. I saw my first ones last weekend. Nice to get 2 together in focus. Very different habitat than my image...

Wonderful, Jim. I would probably lighten a bit more. I like the matching poses, and it's great that you were able to get so close.

Nice job. I know you are happy to have spring arrive. Unfortunately, that means our birds have migrated to you. Look forward to seeing your images throughout the summer.

Jim, good duel here. Like the detail and color but maybe a tad more lightening would make the cranes pop better. Those are some big birds.

Your spring is arriving and my hibernation period is almost starting (summer heat). I like the timing in getting both cranes in focus and in the same pose with good detail on the larger image, well done.
