This beautiful pair of sandhill cranes is wintering at our current “home,” Sumter Oaks RV Park in Bushnell, Florida. A lovely splash of red accents their heads.
Usually they hang out in the neighboring pasture, but they occasionally come visit the campground. The grass must harbor something tasty that they enjoy.
These past few weeks, I’ve envied the birds their tolerance for cold. Their feathered wardrobe serves them year-round. Meanwhile, I keep piling on layer after layer of clothing.
The weather forecast promises increasingly warmer temperatures, up to the 70s by Friday. I’ll be happy when the night temperature stays above freezing!
