Sandhill cranes on the golf course
I spent some of the holidays visiting my daughter and two oldest grandchildren and had a wonderful time. My daughter's house is located in a planned community south of Orlando which includes a golf course. I took these photos late one afternoon while driving through her neighborhood. Can you see the golf balls on the ground in some of the photos?
Linking to Saturday's Critters, Camera Critters, and the Bird D'Pot.

Hello Lois,
I always enjoy seeing these Cranes. They are silly birds walking around on the golf course. I hope they are not hit with the balls.
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend!
Lovely Cranes!
Have a wonderful week-end!
I was just outside giving new feed and trying to find mine- raining guess they are sleeping somewhere - Sebring, Fl
Love the sandhill cranes! Unfortunately, because they like to hang out at golf courses, many are injured by flying balls. There's a bird rehab center here in Sarasota that takes care of many such injuries. Happy 2017!
Yes, I can see the balls. They're big birds!
Beautiful birds, but I don't suppose they make a game of golf very easy.
the first one looks like he is yelling 'fore' to me. I wonder if they get hit by those balls. they are beautiful birds.
Wow they are big birds aren't they

Yep, like eggs. :-)
Lovely shots of the beautiful cranes ~ fun golf balls near them ~ thanks,
Wishing you a Happy and Healthy New Year ~ ^_^
The only thing I ever ran across on the golf course were little bugs that ate my leg up
Yes, either they are golf balls or the cranes are laying lots of eggs!
They look eager to play a game I think!
Uma bela sequência de fotografias.
Um abraço e bom Domingo.

Lois? These are absolutely fabulous!!! I love each and every one.
I'm glad you shared this post with us birders at I'd Rather B Birdin' this weekend...thanks!!!
Beautiful birds. Nice captures, Lois!
Methinks I would like this planned community. Is it a 55+ place. We often see sandhill cranes here, too, on our golf courses. Sometimes they are unafraid and you can get fairly close to them. These are beautiful shots of these beautiful birds.
Awesome! Some elegant looking birds.
Beautiful big birds checking out the course. Excellent images Lois!
