Walk After the Rain with Cranes

Took our walk a bit earlier today after the rain ended. Briskly walked through the fog at the channel. We could hear the horn of a ship approaching but had no idea as to what it would be. Suddenly out of the curtain of fog appeared the Lake Express on it's way to Milwaukee.

We then took a short jaunt through the Channel Campgrounds and back to the car. Once on our way back we still wanted to walk a bit more. We pulled into Snug Harbor picnic grounds. We parked and decided to walk along the shoreline to find water fowl. We found Sandhill Cranes, actually, they were making such a racket with their calls they were impossible not to find. I slowly moved in to get video shots of the birds. I have spliced my videos together for one long viewing. The view keeps moving closer as i tried to slowly edge up for a good close up. In doing so I eventually aroused them to flight. So ended that excitement.

 We then tried to walk into the woods until the trail became just too muddy.
