Sandhill Crane in flight Silhouette

Christopher Dodds October 4, 2022

The single most important parts of a successful silhouette (to me) are ensuring that the wings, neck/head/bill, legs and feet are free and clear of each other - I see so many images with the head or bill intersecting a wing or the body. The best way to achieve this is to invest the time in the field in the best location.

I still have a couple of openings due to cancellation for my Dec. 5-9, 2022 Best of Bosque trip. Learn more HERE.
