Nose Hole Cranes

Looks like I got lucky again down to the Bosque and got me a few nose hole shots. These are from Sunday. TrenchMonkey and I were visiting with some folks and told them we come down to the Bosque every year to shoot Cranes in flight and try to get shots where you can see thru the hole in their nose. These folks looked at us like we were crazy or lying.

Fact of the matter is, you and Will are a bit crazy, but that doesn't detract from another wonderful accomplishment, Rogelio

Some excellent flight shots in this series, Sir!

Mr. Zoom, getting ready for his own flight out of here - too bad you're not here to photograph it

I hope you corrected them and said, "I'm not crazy, but I am wacky."

Mission accomplished Roger, this is a fine gallery of Nose Hole Cranes... where do they get these piercings done anyway

All kidding aside... this is an excellent series Roger with too many fine images for me to pick any favorites.

Very well done.

Nice nasal pass throughs Wacky guy

They show blue, green and brown on the other side

Maybe if you look closely on the last silly-wet there might be some more swiss cheese nose-holers

Gorgeous birds there buddy, nice aerial captures!

Nice shots Roger. I was the falconer who talked to you last Monday. Once I got home it took me almost a week to get a new password for this site. I haven't posted on this site for a couple of years.
