Photo Hunt Saturday--Long
I like this Photo Hunt Earlybird thing. Invariably, I want to sleep in on Saturday, then I forget about posting, then I'm late. And I don't like being late.
This week's theme is: Long. I took this photo at Animal Kingdom at WDW in 2005. It's a photo of... drumroll, please...
...
...
a BIRD! Heh. (Those of you who have been around a while will recognize my hefty obsession with all things ornithological.) I think it's likely a crane of some sort.
I love his LOOOOONG legs and his LOOOOOONG neck. Quite lovely and graceful, don't you think?

Oh, beautiful bird. I like cranes - I think they are neat creature. I do not like them when I find them sittin' on the bank of my pond - tryin' to eat all the fish. Ugh

:::singing::: green alligators and long necked geese... Humpy backed whales and chimpanzees.
Ever hear the song? Oh well, I hope you like me serenading you. The bird is beautiful!!!!

A beautiful shot. It reminds me of my attempts to get a good shot of the Great Blue Herons who frequent our river. There is never a good place to pull off the road, and I haven't gone exploring further.

Ooooh...long neck and long legs.

Very pretty. We've got a few Herons and Cranes around here, but they're all rather dull-colored. The black and white makes this one so much prettier.

A beautiful bird. It looks as if it is standing guard over something.

Yes, it's beautiful. Like some really good artist would like to paint shots like this.
