Miracle of Flight by chrishpetersen by chrishpetersen
A sandhill crane soars overhead with elegance and grace … creating a sense of wonder at nature’s miracle of flight.
Mother Nature has been working on the miracle of flight with cranes for a long time!! A 10 million year old crane fossil has been found in Nebraska. To put that in perspective, homo sapiens have only been around about 200,000 years.
From the perspective in this photo you can appreciate the amazing construction of wings that can span more than 7 feet (2m). There are intricate overlapping layers of wing feathers that enable this bird to soar up to 13,000 feet in altitude.
I would encourage you to watch the cranes flying at dawn and dusk (Central Time Zone), during the migration on the Rowe Sanctuary live web cam. When you click you will first have to watch an ad before you can view the web cam for free: http://ift.tt/1MdqEv5
Leave me a comment or email me if you would like more information on the crane migration or photographing them: chrishpetersen@live.com
