A sandhill crane stands on a trail and looks to the side.  One wing is down and one is partially raised giving the appearance that it is pointing

They were very loud and fun to watch (and hear)!

Yes. The crane was standing with two geese. When a flock of geese flew by, the two geese on the ground started calling and the crane joined them

A sandhill crane stands on a walking path.  It has its wings slightly out and its beak is open.  A goose it had been standing next to started to call out to others that were flying overhead, and the crane joined them

Thank you, Marjo. Sometimes just "speaking" the stresses and worries can help to let go of them. I will certainly keep you in mind for this with great thanks

Thank you, Marjo. That is so very kind. I appreciate that although I am not sure i would place such burden at your kindly opened doorβ™₯️

Thank you, Marjo. Much appreciated. We are growing food for others and volunteering, and it helps to do something. But it is a lot. Being outside and celebrating nature are my moments of peace to help me through it all.

Thanks, Rob! It was right before if flew toward me (unexpectedly)

We do. The number of mornings I wake up feeling overwhelmed and unsure of the future is a lot. And I know it is the same for others.

A robin stands on a branch among dead leaves.  The sky is bright blue behind it.   The bird has its beak slightly open as it was singing

They sat up there after they finished eating. Kept looking down like "okay, how do I get there?"πŸ˜‚ it was a good ten minutes before they flew

Thanks! A turkey flying always feels so intense to me. It is always such a short distance and like it is taking all they have to make it happenπŸ˜†
