The Nikon is still in the shop...
calling and complaining does not speed up the process!!
I don't know why it's taking so long, it was only a little juice.
Anyway,
without the Nikon I cannot take pictures of my feathered friends,
but I really wanted to participate in World Bird Wednesday.
So here it is...but I don't know what it is!!
According to my dear friend
Theresa at The Run*A*Round Ranch
it's an African Crowned Crane,
she called me a "silly girl" for not knowing that!!
Shame on you and thank you Theresa, you have been my blogging angel!

African Crowned Crane
I took these pictures on August 21, 2011, with the Nikon
and never got around to sharing them.
They were taken at Great Adventure, (we don't call it Six Flags),
on a drive thru the Safari.
I think it would qualify, I think it's a bird.
It sure was pretty!!

it's an african crowned crane. :) silly girl...
Looks exotic. I know I have seen these before, but they are not listed in my field guide :(
You know, New Jersey isn't that far away. Maybe one of these days we can have a photography adventure together :)
Sorry about your camera. I haven't cleaned my sensor yet...not wanting to part with my camera or cash. Still thinking of doing it myself, but need to do more research first. Would you mind sharing the cost of your cleaning? Did you send it to Nikon?
Wow!! Its sure a beauty!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Oh, Tex beat me to the punch....guess I was typing too much...lol
Love the white blending to gray! I mean LOVE it! And whoever she is, she had a major influence on British fashion!
well, i guess i'm a silly girl too. because i would have no clue what it would be either. i would say it is a silly funny looking bird. not the normal for around here in virginia ... so i would watch him for a bit. ha. ha!! (:
What ever it is, its gorgeous. Love the crown it wears. I want one just like that.

Happy WBW!
My post is the same bird, - a crown crane (grey). Photo taken when I was visiting Tanzania!
Piękny żuraw, ma śliczne kolory i piękną ozdobę na głowie. Ma tez piękne zdjęcia. Pozdrawiam.*** Beautiful crane, has beautiful colors and beautiful decoration on the head. He also has beautiful pictures. Yours.
Wow, that's a beautiful bird, great shots too. Hope that Nikon comes back to you soon, that must be so frustrating.
A very beautiful bird Debbie, that African Crowned Crane. You got some excellent shots of it!
Doesn't he look regal!
Somehow I think he knows he's handsome. :)
Beautiful animal. Did I miss something? Did you spill something on your camera? Bonnie
Wow, now that's a bird!
It is a bird and very beautiful at that.
We don't get these exotic looking birds in my part of the country. At least, not that I know of. He's a pretty boy!
Of, course...everyone knows what that is! LOL! Some people just have to be a smarty pants. ;-) Gorgeous shots, Debbie!
Great photos. I hope your camera gets fixed and back to you soon.
Oh...I was missing you. So sorry for your Nikon....
But the pictures are glamorous....Thank you for sharing...
God bless you

Great captures, Debbie! It is a gorgeous bird.
Oh He's beautiful....I am amazed at the details on these cranes.....
Fantastic photographs of the African Crowned Crane! I saw many of these beauties while traveling in Africa. They were even feeding along side airport runways. Beautiful! Hope you get you camera back soon!
What a beautiful bird! And great photos. Gotta be careful with that juice! Thanks for the laugh!
Wouldn't that add some excitement in the back yard! Lovely photos.
Awesome, simply awesome!
A beautiful bird to see...
Stupendous bird...I've never seen anything like it. Good luck with your camera, I hope it comes back perfect!
