In Search of Newborn Animals
It was a beautiful spring day. We decided to go out and scout some local locations for future YouTube videos. To make it more interesting we made it a goal to find newborn critters to photograph. We did find a few but we were for the most part a little early.
Sandhill Crane Migration part 2
After some breakfast and an additional cup of coffee, we headed back to the visitor center to catch the bus for the daytime tour to photograph the Sandhill Cranes in the fields as they were feeding. The bus was half full so we could all line up on one side of the bus to observe the cranes. For equipment, I brought my camera, a Sony A7R4, a 200-600mm Sony lens, and a 50mm lens. Monique brought her 200-600mm lens and her trusty 70-200mm Sony lens. We were also warned, before we left, to use the restrooms now as there would be no pit stops for the next couple of hours or so. Then we were off.
Sandhill Crane Migration
Getting a chance to photograph the sandhill crane migration along the Platte River has been on my bucket list for a long time. This year we had a chance to check that checkbox. We drove out to North Platte, Nebraska for this adventure. We had signed up with Dusty Trails, LLC, a company that offered guided tours of the migration.
