While we are on the subject of Sandhill Cranes…

There were only about 5000 Cranes down yet while we were at Bosque in November. Only is completely relative. Even 100 Cranes in a corn field is impressive. While shooting these I was switching back and forth between my point and shoot behind the ZEISS DiaScope and my Canon SX40HS, using the superzoom for flight shots and the digiscoping rig for portraits. These are all digiscoped shots.

Canon SD100HS behind the Vario eyepiece on a ZEISS DiaScope 65FL for focal lengths ranging from 1200mm to 4000mm equivalents.

Processed in Lightroom for Intensity and Sharpness.
