Sandhill Cranes at Conboy Lake NWR

I’ve been MIA while preparing for & now entertaining guests! Love to show my family some favorite haunts like Conboy Lake National Wildlife Refuge, where we saw Sandhill Cranes, Golden-mantled Squirrels, elk, raptors & more! This banded sandhill crane was so close, he barely fit in my frame. I love their red heads, shaped like a heart and their gorgeous feathers.
