Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality…

Keeping up with the bird photography theme, today’s photo is of a sandhill crane I took at the Bosque del Apache NWR. When the sandhill migrations happen, there are so many birds in the popular viewpoints that it is challenging to get a single bird portrait without cutting off another bird. I had a few shots where parts of other birds were poking into the frame, and it distracted from the images more than I thought possible. The photo of this sandhill crane foraging was one of the few images where I managed to render the distracting elements out of focus.
