Into the Eyes of a Crane

This sand-hill crane just kept staring and staring at me. I was still in my van, and I actually thought it was going to come over and stick its long neck into my window. It never did, but he/she was definitely looking for a handout.

It was a mixed bag today at the metro park. I forgot to take my peanuts and sunflower seeds, so I had nothing to feed the chickadees with out of my hand. Plus, for the second day in a row, I had to choose between wild and domestic animals.

In the Extras...are two turkeys. The white one is very young, and in a caged-in pen with some chickens. The winged one is wild, but it is visiting the pig enclosure.

I am down to an unlucky 13 pictures left to put into the Extras.
