Sandhill Cranes

I was driving home yesterday afternoon, when I spotted these Sandhill Cranes. So I parked my car and took some pictures. These birds are big and always seem to travel in a group. Hopefully I get to see some more.

Thanks, the last one is my favorite. The red on their heads makes them look so good and the orange eyes.

What type if lens did you use ?
I got that new lens I really love. It's the AF-S Nikkor 80-400mm. It's really fast and sharp. Wasn't exactly cheap, but worth every penny. I can see the difference compare to my old lens. However it's quite heavy.
