Brooke continues to allow us to enjoy the Class of 2012 vicariously through the photos he captures and shares with us weekly.

Look up! What a marvelous sight!

While much of the country suffers cold winter winds and ice and snow, it is nice to escape into the serenity of this double image photo.

Disney crane handler Dan and Colleen are in the blind getting ready for their visit to the pen.

No exercise treadmill needed after a half mile trek to the blind followed by this long muddy hike to the pen.

The Class of 2012 appears to be out for their daily constitutional.

Initially on a stroll, now it appears they are ‘on a mission

Ah…their target’s in sight…. the snack bin.

Got food?

Returning to the safety of the pen after a day of fun and foraging in the marsh.
Wonderful! How great to see them! Love all the pictures Brooke, thanks so much for posting. I laughed at a few (not yours Colleen LOL ) and the last picture returning home for the day brought on tears of joy.
What joy to follow the everyday life of these special birds!
Thanks a million.
Thanks so much for this new set of pix of “our babies”…who aren’t really babies anymore. Since we don’t have a pen cam to see them this is such a lovely way to keep up with their progress
Wonderful photos! I love them all! From the awesome scenic fly in pic to the lovable close up of that adorable face! Sure do miss them <3 Thanks for keeping us updated weekly.
Thanks Brooke, and OM for posting these great pictures. It’s so nice to see my friends again.
Thanks for taking these, Brooke, and for posting ‘em, Liz – it’s great to see photos every week of “da burds”.
Wow! Great pictures. Thank you so much.
