Nesting

A Sandhill Crane sits on her nest in a retention pond. They typically nest on the edge of the water, but after two days of hard rain the pond filled up quickly. I saw the pair yesterday and thought they were just feeding. Then when I went by today and one was in the exact same spot, I realized they were nesting.
