Unlike the last three videos I posted of birds in the yard these cranes don't like water so you'll never see them in the creek. Used two cams: Dahua SD49425XB-HNR and T5442T-ZE

 
They're a staple around here. The neat thing is when they all group up in the late fall to head south. They make a V that seriously rivals that of any geese. I've only been lucky enough to be out there as they we leaving our area 3 or 4 times in the whole time we've lived out here. Magnificent!
 
Hard to say this time of year but these may be "Florida sandhill cranes" vs "Greater sandhill cranes".
