Look what was in my yard today...

A sand crane. That's one mighty big bird...

Beautiful! Can't believe you just found it roaming in your yard! Must have been quite a surprise... and a delightful one at that!

I saw a ring-necked pheasant here a year or two ago. That was very strange.

I live in Florida and I always see them in the cow pastures with their babies this time of the year
