A great egret at the Matthaei Botanical Gardens, Ann Arbor. We hope that the greenhouses and fenced gardens will be able to open soon. |
A heron and two Canada geese. |
A nesting sandhill crane. |
We could see the crane's mate on the other side of the reeds. |

The egret looks very beautiful!
Beautiful pictures!
Great shot of the reflecting heron.
Yes, hope things open up soon.
Fabulous photos! Valerie
How cool you have sandhill cranes. We don't get them here. I'm glad they build their nests so high off the ground too. Happy Friday.
Beautiful bird shots, Mae. The sand hill cranes are wonderful. They nest in an area about 50 mi9les west of me, so I have to travel if I want to see them. As for the geese, all I have to do is walk to the river, about 7 blocks from me.
Striking! That egret makes quite an impression, doesn't it!
Gorgeous, each and every one, but especially the egret. I haven't been to Matthei's botanicals in ages. It's beautiful.
Really wonderful photos. Have a nice day.
How nice to see the Sandhill Cranes at a nest. Very lucky.
Hello,
Great collection of photo and birds. I love the Egret, Heron and the Sandhill Crane. It would be neat to see the Crane's chicks. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a happy weekend! PS, thank you for the visit and comment on my blog.
Hello. Wonderful collection of birds. Thank you for sharing.
How neat to see the Crane nesting! I've never seen one with a nest on the ground like that. Love this post and all the birds you've seen!
PS I love the reflections in the water of the first few photos too!
I am always fascinated seeing birds especially water birds . You've captured such lovely shots. Thanks for sharing Mae.
What a great series of photographs. I suspect that the rain didn't bother the birds at all. I am especially excited to see the crane on the nest. Well done with all of these images.
