Ok, this is a horrible picture I realize. It was taken from my truck on the way back across the creek from the pond. That's a crane of some sort that we've seen frequent our pond in the warmer months for as long as I can remember. Have only seen, what I can only assume, this single big bird. For what it's worth, this happens to be the area of the creek where I caught 30+ chub a couple months back. Does anyone know what it is?
