Dear Friends, this is a Great Egret and we don’t usually see a lot of these at Crex, but this year there is a small flock hanging out at Fish Lake.  We sat on the dike and watched this one fish for over 30 minutes, then he flew. Right at us. til tomorrow MJ

    Hi MJ, Really lovely photos! Thank you. Earlier you mentioned the sandhill cranes and I am wondering if they are still there and, if so, what is the best time of day to photograph them? Thanks. Connie

    Great shots. The hardest thing with these birds is the exposure, you nailed it.
