It's turtle time at the Flyway!  Great weather for basking in the sun, and fallen logs have as many turtles as they can hold today.

Another turtle-filled day at the Flyway.  Must be some mother turtles in this group.

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mothers at the Flyway

Sandhill cranes feeding at the fallen, posing tree this morning.  Maybe we'll get lucky and they will nest in camera range this summer.

Sandhills raised chicks (called colts) at the Flyway 2 summers ago, I believe.  Sooooo cute.

Here's a BE at about age 1.5 years, when feathers have a checkered look.

Sub-adult BE this morning.  Age chart says it's about 2.5 years old.  Looks to me like it bathed in milk chocolate.   :D

Three BEs spent a couple of hours on the fallen tree this morning.  Great views from the cam ops, and thanks so much for all you do to keep us watchers entertained and educated!    :D

Great pic of the sandhills!  Here's another from about noon.
And the turtles are out basking on the log they prefer about 5:30 PM.
Stormy weather expected soon.
