It's raining cranes - 4

It's raining cranes - 4 (Grus canadensis)

As they continued to parachute slowly, I was able to keep tracking them even as I attached the teleconverter and zoomed in closer. I think I've posted another of this pair earlier, where the silhouettes weren't overlapped.

LOL Ann... it almost looks as if you've got a reflection of one, doesn't it

Another great picture showing their undercarriage down landing pose.

I hope you and your family have a very happy New Year.
