We get a handful of these every winter. They have great iridescence on the head if you can get them in sunlight

This one spent far more time underwater than it did above, but it didn't mind me being near by

This is a lifer (first) for me. I don't think they're terribly rare, just my first.

No matter how hot or cold a room is, it's still room temperature.

A Sandhill Crane was strolling down the boardwalk, much to the displeasure of the Red-winged Blackbirds. Sandhill Cranes will eat Red-winged Blackbirds eggs and nestlings, so the Red-winged Blackbirds were attacking and doing their best to drive the Crane away.
