Common Crane Grus grus

Boddin/Usan, Angus, Scotland

Monday 2nd to Wednesday 4th April 2007

  Basically record shots. Heat haze and the distance strained my 300mm lens but a great bird and finally I catch up with one in the county. Nice to see it against the sea and the early morning sky.

  Photos taken with a Canon EOS 30D and a Canon 75-300mm Lens.

1st, 5th, 6th & 7th Photo: Shutter 1/2500, ISO 400

2nd. 3rd, 4th & 8th Photo: Shutter 1/1600, ISO 400
