Our local pair of sandhill cranes recently had two chicks, and they're the talk of the town

Beautiful. Don't get those where I'm from. Thanks for sharing!
It's neat the town's appreciating them. Great photos!! They have a very dinosaur-esque gait. I love the crimson on the face of the adult. The shape/colour reminds me of a cocktail mask for a costume party :P
We have 2 sandhill cranes in our neighborhood, I still can't help but look when they are in our yard and I've seen many cars stop in front of our house to take pictures of them.
