Nice capture.

Description
This pair of Sandhill Cranes have been regular visitors to the mill pond here in Hespeler, for the better part of autumn. The early cold snap, and first snow would seem to have no effect whatsoever on them. Thirty years ago, to see Sandhill Cranes at this time of year here would seem impossible. How dramatically things have changed in that time.
