Sandhill Cranes by Dave Kemp

Photos by Dave Kemp

These five photos are from a series of shots taken by my new acquaintance from British Columbia, Dave Kemp.   The photos show a Sandhill Crane coming in for a landing in a river delta marsh, south-west of Vancouver.   I'd never seen views like these of a Sandhill before and their effect on me almost left me speechless.   The shot above could be described variously as amazing, grotesque, spectacular, otherworldly, etc, etc.   Keep in mind, the wingspan of this bird is 6 to 7'.

Dave's bird photos are excellent but he does not limit himself to just avian subjects.   Go to his website to see his other photographic subject matter.   His newest website can be found at www.pictureperfect.nu/gallery.
