It's tough being a sandhill crane parent, as will be seen in this tale told in 26 pictures. Hope you enjoy!

If the coast is clear, I could use a stretch.

Ah, feels good to get up.

© Shiva dancing 2013

Ooo, the water's colder than I remember.

© Shiva dancing 2013

Yup, I still have that great strut once I get moving. Dancing to the music in my head!

© Shiva dancing 2013

Ah yes, think I'll go get some chow.

What was that?!

Hmmm, looks like slim pickings here.

© Shiva dancing 2013

Right, that's where I wanted to go eat.

Why do I get the feeling I'm being followed?

Hmmm...

Maybe if I just lower my head, I won't be seen.

© Shiva dancing 2013

Kindly get off my backside!

© Shiva dancing 2013

Splash some water on my face, keep calm, think!

Ha, that's great. I posted another thread where a RWBB was picking on a bald eagle. Those little guys are fearless.

Neat set. The RWBB didn't seem to have that big an effect. Sort of like a mosquito for a human. Annoying as heck, but not overly worrisome.

That was a great series, Steve; those RWBB sure are pesky! Looks like this RWBB did not know the 3rd rule of fight club.
