Sandhill Cranes - Bosque Del Apache (3047)
Walking (well, running!) on water as they accelerate for takeoff; just after sunrise. This pond, where they roosted for the night, is deep, so it deters coyotes from bothering them. Before sunrise a pack patrolled the shoreline, hoping to find a meal within reach.
