November 18, 2008 - Day 33 |
 |
|
After 7 days on the ground we were finally rewarded with perfect
weather. The costumed handlers make their way to the pensite to
prepare to release the cranes this morning. |
 |
|
Today's lead pilot Chris attempts to guide the birds away from their
enclosure. They seemed eager to form up on his wing but soon broke
off. |
 |
|
On one of their return trips to the pen Chris managed to intercept
them and position his aircraft in front of them. Swamp monster was
called into action this morning to deter the cranes from landing
back at their enclosure. |

|
OM Board member Jamie Johannsen captured this gorgeous shot this
morning. |
 |
|
And Chris Gullikson snapped this shot of his five cranes with the
nuclear power plant in the background. |
