Sandhill Cranes in Kings Point

Living in Kings Point, the gated community within Sun City Center Florida, can have some rewarding consequences. A few weeks ago while going to visit a client in Kings Point, I came across a sight I have seen on a few occasions. Unfortunately, on those past occasions, I never had my camera available. I was lucky on this day. As I turned to go to their home, there in the road were 3 Sandhill Cranes. Just strolling along at their leisure. In Florida, you bcome accustomed to such events and quietly sit and wait for the local wildlife to move on. It's also fun to just watch them when you have the opportunity.

I happened to have my camera on this particulat day, and clicked away. I stayed in my car for fear that if I got out, it would scare them away. Although they didn't seem to be in a hurry to get out of my way.




I sat there for about 20 minutes watching them stroll along and snapped a few pictures. Enjoy!
