Love photographing the Sandhill Cranes flying in to roost. Had a great opportunity last week, at the end of the NatureScapes workshop that I lead. I am a sucker for the silhouettes they make as the land. This was one of my favorites from that session.

D4, 500mm, 1.4x tc, iso 3200, 1/800 sec, f/7.1

I too love silhouettes and when they come in with their legs down.

Not always a fan of silhouettes unless they are done right, and I can say that this one is!! Good look at all the birds with their legs and primaries showing well. Killer sky colors too. Well done
