Just ran out to our local little ponds as my mother had informed me the cranes were back in town. Figured I'd likely not see them at all, found two of them! The gray/blue wasn't out today but I have seen him, maybe next time.

Merry Christmas Shane.

You must be South. Most of our herons and egrets have gone South for the winter, where the water's not frozen.

Thanks Ed. Merry Christmas to you.

That may be my best goose shot ever. The light was good, but that 5DS-R makes a hell of a file, when conditions are right.

Thanks Dave, I realize now that I identified that little guy all wrong. Austin is around the 80s this year for the holidays .

Merry Christmas everyone!

Since Shane brought up cranes, here's a favorite of mine from earlier this year(Sandhill Crane):

Every year my contribution to the holiday feast is my pancetta stuffed mushrooms (along with shallots, breadcrumbs and goat cheese). It's a great appetizer, but equally at home along with the ham, saffron rice, and green bean casserole. This year's wine was a 2012 Ten Acre "Jenkins" Pinot Noir

Looks delicious. We had brisket, blintzes, applesauce, veggies, and roasted potato "gems."

Oof.

This eagle seems to have taken up residence with it's mate at or near the Sacramento NWR. A welcome sight!

It would be great if they nest, EXCEPT then the refuge would block off a five-square mile area and you'd never see them again.
