very nice images Mike

Both very nicely done MB. Very nice exposure control with white vs white.

Are these wild, or captive?

Thanks for taking a look and commenting. HBG, there are two of these cranes in the zoo, but there was no visible fence. I assume they can't fly, so perhaps their wings are clipped. They are beautiful birds.
