I am so thankful for birds. I've learned so many lessons from watching them. I've written dozens of articles, stories, and poems about my feathered friends. As a matter of fact the first piece of writing I sold was a poem about a mockingbird. I've drawn and painted countless pictures of them. Now, with my new camera, I'm enjoying taking closer up photos and my portfolio of birds is already in the hundreds.

Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? (Matthew 6:25-27)

| Sand cranes are always in pairs. They mate for life....there's a lesson in that. |
