A day out with the family

Took the kids out for a day trip, the one photo is of Pass lake around one and a half hours from home. The kids caught some real nice Bull trout but they are protected and had to be released. The dogs treed a Black Bear, and I took a photo of a Spruce Grouse hen.

Sandhill Crane

Coming home from work a few days ago I saw something run across the road about 3 or 4 hundred yards away. Not knowing what it was at that distance I pulled my camera out and was rewarded with these pictures of the crane. I have seen them before but never this close.
