Feathered Farmers - The Corny Cranes of Bosque del Apache!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Bob Gibbons, witness a heartwarming scene straight out of a bird paradise. A flock of majestic Greater Sandhill Cranes has descended upon the snowy fields of Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge in New Mexico, USA. These elegant creatures have found themselves a winter feast amidst the maize (corn) fields. As evening sets in, these clever cranes form four distinct groups to forage and feed on the cultivated crops. With their long beaks delicately pecking at each kernel, it's as if they've transformed into nature's own farmers! Protected within this wildlife haven, these migratory birds have chosen this sanctuary as their wintering grounds. The sight is truly awe-inspiring as these North American beauties navigate through the vast expanse of farmland. Against the backdrop of golden cornstalks and snow-covered plains, their graceful presence adds an extra touch of magic to America's natural landscape. Let yourself be transported into this enchanting world where birds reign supreme and even cornfields become gourmet dining establishments for our feathered friends. Join us in celebrating the harmony between man-made cultivation and Mother Nature's creations with Bob Gibbons' stunning photograph - a testament to both the beauty and resilience found within our protected wildlife reserves.
