I took this photo from my client’s home office, a space originally meant for a formal living room. My desk faced a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows. I looked up from my work as two Sandhill Cranes sauntered past.
This photo is bittersweet. My client’s home was in a golf course community that served as a Sandhill Crane Sanctuary. But, in August, my client moved to the other side of our city. An easier drive for me. His new house backs up to a nature preserve with plenty of deer but no Sandhill Cranes.
