Just wanted to say thanks for the tips for my Ann Arbor trip. I didn't have more than a couple of hours to wander with a camera but was super excited to get the best Sand Hill Crane shots that I ever been able to take.

In California, we only see them in the winter and usually in the corn stubble which is really busy and makes for horrible backgrounds. They are also usually very far away and skittish.

I was so happy to see them up close and personal.

There are a few designated MetroParks in the Ann Arbor area and we were able to make it to the Kensington Metropark. I saw mostly birds there but believe that other animals are around if you have the time to look for them.

Nice close ups!

They will probably be moved to the sub gallery for birds.

Thanks for the tip. I put it in the main discussion so that those whose gave me tips would see it since not everyone subscribes to the bird section. Also, thought others might be interested in the MetroParks.

That said, it's okay if it's moved.

That's just UHH rules. Each section has them listed at the top of the first page,

Only Admin moves them.
