Sandhill Crane
Taking flight after gleaning in a corn field. I was photographing from my car about 150 yards away. I didn't scare him (her?) as the bird just decided to fly up to join three other noisy sandhill cranes flying over. (Taken at ISO 12,800 and cropped severely – thank goodness for ACR AI noise removal.) Thanks for all the kind comments on this photo being Explored – too many to respond to individually.
