I photographed this African crested crane at the Henry Omaha Doorly Zoo this fall. He was very obliging so I got a number of shots.

Sorry about the deletion and new upload -- I had forgotten to re-size before the original upload and when it was taking so long I thought it was not going to "take" so I backed out and tried again. When I came back, I had two images in my gallery, one with comments and one without, and one contest entry which I took to be the one with comments but I wasn't sure so . . .Thanks Tammy and Mel :)
