November Crex Photo Club (photos submitted by Bob Irish)

Trumpeter Swans take off into the mist, from the south end of Phantom Lake, passing over a small raft of American Coots.

A thick fog obscures these three Sandhill Cranes, as they begin to take off to join the rest of the flocks in the farm fields surrounding Crex Meadows.

A conversion to black and white, and a bit more "tweaking" in Photoshop, and more detail is revealed of the "Foggy Cranes".

A thick fog blankets Crex Meadows and leaves it's traces as frost on the grasses.

A pair of Sandhill Cranes stand near the road,  offering the photographer a striking pose.

An Evening at Crex

As I have said before, I am probably the world's worst writer so I will let this video I made do the talking for me. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did being there to witness this incredible experience in person.
