The Crossing
We're not the only ones who have hard lessons to learn. Here, a moma sandhill crane and her chick are about to cross Hwy. 31 just south of Arcadia. I was amazed that Mom was actually watching for a break in traffic before darting out into the road.
Okay, now wait until I say “Go!”
Darn, bad timing!
Okay, let's wait for traffic to clear again.
Okay...Now!
C'mon...Go! Go! Go!
But mom, your legs are longer than mine!
Almost there!
We made it!!
